Christian, up and smite them, Counting gain but loss; Smite them by the merit Of the holy Cross. 2 Christian, dost thou feel them, How they work within, Striving, tempting, luring, Goading into sin? Christian, never tremble, Never be down-cast; Gird thee for the battle, Watch and pray and fast. 3 Christian, dost thou hear them, How they speak thee fair: Always fast and vigil, Always watch and prayer? Christian, answer boldly, 'While I breathe, I pray.' Peace shall follow battle, Night shall end in day. 4 Well I know thy trouble, O my servant true, Thou art very weary, I was weary too; But that toil shall make thee Some day all mine own, But the end of sorrow Shall be near my throne.

O the pangs his soul sustained! Shun not suffering, shame, or loss; Learn of him to bear the cross. A-men. 3 Calvary's mournful mountain climb; There, adoring at his feet, Mark that miracle of time, God's own Sacrifice complete; 'It is finished,' hear him cry; Learn of Jesus Christ to die. 4 Early hasten to the tomb, Where they laid his breathless clay; All is solitude and gloom; Who hath taken him away? Christ is risen!--He meets our eyes; Saviour, teach us so to rise. Amen. Languages: English Tune Title: PETRA (REDHEAD NO. 76)

A mighty fortress is our God

Author: Frederick H.

Dost ask who that may be? Christ Jesus, it is he; Lord Sabaoth his Name, From age to age the same, And he must win the battle. 3 And though this world, with devils filled, Should threaten to undo us; We will not fear, for God hath willed His truth to triumph through us: The prince of darkness grim, We tremble not for him; His rage we can endure, For lo! his doom is sure, One little word shall fell him. 4 That word above all earthly powers, No thanks to them, abideth; The Spirit and the gifts are ours Thru Him who with us sideth: Let goods and kindred go, This mortal life also; The body they may kill: God's truth abideth still, His kingdom is forever.
