90. The Call to Arms

1 The call to arms is sounding today,
The foe is on the move.
Go forth O Church of God to the fray,
Equipp’d by the pow’r of love.

Refrain:
The call to arms is heaven’s call
To all who love the Lord;
No one shall suffer loss
Who fights beneath the cross,
Let not this vain, deceitful world
Allure you by its charms;
Put on the armor and obey
The Master’s call to arms.

2 The foe is strong, the march may be hard
But God is in command.
Be not dismay’d, your Master and Lord,
Protects you by His strong hand. [Refrain]

3 O rally then, ye soldiers of heav’n,
The fight today is on.
God’s promise to His host has been giv’n,
That victory shall be won. [Refrain]
