Stand Up for Jesus

Author: George Duffield, 1818-1888 Hymnal: Revival Hymns and Choruses #411 (1970) Topics: Challenge First Line: Stand up, stand up for Jesus Lyrics: 1 Stand up, stand up, for Jesus, Ye soldiers of the cross! Lift high His royal banner - It must not suffer loss. From vict'ry unto vict'ry His army shall He lead; Till ev'ry foe is vanquished, And Christ is Lord indeed. 2 Stand up, stand up, for Jesus, The trumpet call obey; Forth to the mighty conflict In this His glorious day: Ye that are men now serve Him Against unnumbered foes; Let 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, Each piece put on with prayer; Where duty calls or danger, Be never wanting there. 4 Stand up, stand up for Jesus, The strife will not be long; This day the noise of battle - The next, the victor's song. To Him that overcometh A crown of life shall be: He with the King of glory Shall reign eternally. Languages: English Tune Title: WEBB

Blest are the pure in heart

Hall (1793-1861) Hymnal: The Song Book of the Salvation Army #411 (1986) Topics: The life of holiness Challenge Lyrics: 1 Blest are the pure in heart, For they shall see our God; The secret of the Lord is theirs; Their soul is Christ’s abode. 2 The Lord, who left the heavens Our life and peace to bring, To dwell in lowliness with men, Their pattern and their King; 3 Still to the lowly soul He doth himself impart, And for his cradle and his throne Chooseth the pure in heart. 4 Lord, we thy presence seek; May ours this blessing be; Give us a pure and lowly heart, A temple meet for thee.

Christ, whose glory fills the skies

Author: Charles Wesley (1707-88) Hymnal: The Song Book of the Salvation Army #412 (1986) Topics: The life of holiness Challenge Lyrics: 1 Christ, whose glory fills the skies, Christ, the true, the only light, Sun of righteousness arise, Triumph o’er the shades of night; Dayspring from on high, be near; Day-star, in my heart appear. 2 O disclose thy lovely face! Quicken all my drooping powers; Gasps my fainting soul for grace As a thirsty land for showers. Haste, my Lord, no more delay; Come, my Saviour, come away. 3 Dark and cheerless is the morn Unaccompanied by thee; Joyless is the day’s return Till thy mercy’s beams I see, Till thou inward light impart, Glad my eyes and warm my heart. 4 Visit, then, this soul of mine, Pierce the gloom of sin and grief; Fill me, Radiancy divine, Scatter all my unbelief; More and more thyself display, Shining to the perfect day.

He’s saving, I’m believing, This blessing now I claim; His Spirit I’m receiving, My heart is in a flame. 4 I’ve wondrous peace through trusting, A well of joy within; This rest is everlasting, My days fresh triumphs win. He gives me heavenly measure, Pressed down and running o’er; O what a priceless treasure, Glory for evermore! Languages: English

Eternal Light! Eternal Light

Author: Thomas Binney (1798-1874) Hymnal: The Song Book of the Salvation Army #414 (1986) Topics: The life of holiness Challenge Lyrics: 1 Eternal Light! Eternal Light! How pure the soul must be, When, placed within thy searching sight, It shrinks not, but with calm delight, Can live and look on thee. 2 The spirits that surround thy throne May bear the burning bliss; But that is surely theirs alone, Since they have never, never known A fallen world like this. 3 O how shall I, whose native sphere Is dark, whose mind is dim, Before the ineffable appear, And on my naked spirit bear The uncreated beam? 4 There is a way for man to rise To that sublime abode; An offering and a sacrifice, A Holy Spirit’s energies, An advocate with God. 5 These, these prepare us for the sight Of holiness above; The sons of ignorance and night May dwell in the eternal light, Through the eternal love.
