Longstaff (1822-1894) Meter: 6.5.6.5 D Appears in 304 hymnals Scripture: Mark 3:14 Lyrics: 1 Take time to be holy, Speak oft with thy Lord; Abide in Him always, And feed on His word. Make friends of God's children; Help those who are weak; Forgetting in nothing His blessing to seek. 2 Take time be holy, The world rushes on; Much time spend in secret With Jesus alone; By looking to Jesus, Like Him thou shalt be; Thy friends in thy conduct His likeness shall see. 3 Take time to be holy, Let Him be thy Guide, And run not before Him, Whatever betide; In joy or in sorrow, Still follow thy Lord, And, looking to Jesus, Still trust in His Word. 4 Take time to be holy, Be calm in thy soul; Each thought and each motive Beneath His control; Thus led by His Spirit To fountains of love, Thou soon shalt be fitted For service above. Amen. Topics: Commitment; Discipleship; Life in Christ Dedication and Consecration Used With Tune: LONGSTAFF

Lift high his royal banner, it must not suffer loss. From victory on to victory his army he shall lead till evil is defeated, and Christ is Lord indeed. 2 Stand up, stand up for Jesus! The trumpet call obey; then join the mighty conflict in this his glorious day. Be strong in faith and 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 power alone, for human might will fail you -- you dare not trust your own. Put on the gospel armour, keep watch with constant prayer; when duty calls or danger, be never failing there. 4 Stand up, stand up for Jesus! The fight will not be long: this day the noise of battle, the next the victor's song. To everyone who conquers, a crown of life shall be; we, with the king of glory, shall reign eternally.
