The trumpet-call obey; Forth to the mighty conflict, In this his glorious day: Ye that are men, now serve him, Against unnumbered foes; Your courage rise with danger, And strength to strength oppose. 3 Stand up! stand up for Jesus! Stand in his strength alone: The arm of flesh will fail you-- Ye dare not trust your own: Put on the gospel armor, And watching unto prayer, Where duty calls, or danger, Be never wanting there. 4 Stand up! stand up for Jesus!

'Tis the Father's pleasure we should call him Lord, who from the beginning was the mighty Word. 2 Humbled for a season to receive a name from the lips of sinners unto whom he came. Faithfully he bore it, spotless to the last, brought it back victorious when from death he passed. 3 In your hearts enthrone him, there let him subdue all that is not holy, all that is not true. Crown him as your sovereign in temptation's hour, let his will enfold you in its mighty power. 4 Christians, this Lord Jesus shall return again with the Father's glory, when he comes to reign. For all earthly powers soon to him must bow, so let us confess him King of glory now. Topics: Adoration Used With Tune: KING'S WESTON
