Cheer up, ye soldiers of the cross
Author: R. F. Cottrell Hymnal: The Seventh-Day Adventist Hymn and Tune Book #622 (1886) Topics: The Christian Warfare and Pilgrimage Lyrics: 1 Cheer up, ye soldiers of the cross;
The moment soon will come
When you shall lay your armor off,
And reach your blissful home.
The pearly gates will wide unfold
Before our conquering King,
And entering hosts, with harps of gold,
Triumphantly shall sing.
2 What though the warfare be severe,
And enemies be strong;
And painful watchings, dark and drear,
The tedious night prolong;
Our Captain passed this way before,
And felt each cruel sting:
Courage! the strife will soon be o'er,
And then with joy we'll sing.
3 Many a soldier in this strife,
Has nobly bled and died,
Counting it joy to give his life
For Him once crucified.
And when our Captain comes again,
Those from the dead he'll bring;
And they with us, and we with them,
Triumphantly will sing.
4 O, 'twill be joy, but to behold
That glad immortal throng
Enter and walk the streets of gold,
And sing the victor's song!
To see that host and hear that song,
Must joy ecstatic bring;
But those who will may join that throng,
With them you too may sing. Tune Title: COURAGE
Cheer up, ye soldiers of the cross

And hearts are brave again, and arms are strong.

Rideth a King in his might,
Leading the host of all the faithful
Into the midst of the fight;
See them with courage advancing,
Clad in their brilliant array,
Shouting the name of their Leader,
Hear them exultingly say:
Refrain:
Not to the strong is the battle,
Not to the swift is the race,
Yet to the true and the faithful
Vict’ry is promised through grace.
2 Conquering now and still to conquer,
Who is this wonderful King?
Whence are the armies which He leadeth,
While of His glory they sing?
He is our Lord and Redeemer,
Saviour and Monarch divine;
They are the stars that forever
Bright in His kingdom shall shine. [Refrain]
3 Conquering now and still to conquer,
Jesus, thou Ruler of all,
Thrones and their scepters all shall perish,
Crowns and their splendor shall fall;
Yet shall the armies Thou leadest,
Faithful and true to the last,
Find in thy mansions eternal
Rest, when their warfare is past. [Refrain]

Ever is the war cry
When we pass through yonder river
Author: Kelly Hymnal: The Voice of Praise #938 (1873) Topics: Termination of the Christian Warfare Lyrics: 1 When we pass through yonder river,
When we reach the farther shore,
There's an end of war for ever;
We shall see our foes no more:
All our conflicts then shall cease,
Followed by eternal peace.
2 After warfare, rest is pleasant:
Oh, how sweet the prospect is!
Though we toil and strive at present,
Let us not repine at this:
Toil and pain and conflict past,
All endear repose at last.
3 When we gain the heavenly regions,
When we touch the heavenly shore,--
Blessed thought!--no hostile legions
Can alarm or trouble more:
Far beyond the reach of foes,
We shall dwell in sweet repose.
4 Oh, that hope! how bright, how glorious!
'Tis his people's blessed reward;
In the Saviour's strength victorious,
They at length behold their Lord:
In his kingdom they shall rest,
In his love be fully blest.
When we pass through yonder river
Hoy fortitude
Author: Dr. Watts Hymnal: A Selection of Hymns #CCXXVIII (1792) Meter: 8.6.8.6 Topics: The Christian Warfare First Line: Am I a soldier of the cross Lyrics: 1 Am I a soldier of the cross,
A follower of the lamb?
And shall I fear to own his cause,
Or blush to speak his name?
2 Must I be carried to the skies,
On flowery beds of ease;
While others fought to win the prize,
And sail'd thro' bloody seas?
3 Are there no foes for me to face?
Must I not stem the flood?
Is this vile world a friend to grace,
To help me on to God?
4 Sure I must fight, if I would reign;
Increase my courage Lord!
I'll bear the toil, endure the pain,
Supported by thy word.
5 Thy saints, in all this glorious war,
Shall conquer tho' they die;
They see the triumph from afar,
And seize it with their eye.
6 When that illustrious day shall rise,
And all thy armies shine,
In robes of victory thro' the skies,
The glory shall be thine.
Scripture: 1 Corinthians 16:13 Languages: English

Awake my soul, lift up thine eyes
Hymnal: A Collection of Psalms and Hymns for Publick Worship #CIII (1789) Topics: Faith, Holiness and moral Virtues The Christian Warfare Lyrics: 1 Awake my soul, lift up thine eyes;
See where thy foes against thee rise,
In long array, a numerous host;
Awake my soul, or thou art lost.
2 See where rebellious passions rage,
And fierce desires and lusts engage;
The meanest foe of all the train
Has thousands and ten thousands slain.
3 Thou tread'st upon enchanted ground,
Perils and snares beset thee round;
Beware of all, guard every part,
But most the traitor in thy heart.
4 Come, then, my soul, now learn to wield
The weight of thine immortal shield;
Put on the armour from above
Of heavenly truth and heavenly love.
5 The terror and the charm repel,
And powers of earth, and powers of hell;
Thy Man of Calv'ry triumph'd here;
Why should his faithful followers fear? Languages: English
Awake my soul, lift up thine eyes
For ever-blessed be the Lord

My Savior and my shield;
He sends his Spirit with his word,
To arm me for the field.
2 When sin and hell their force unite,
He makes my soul his care,
Instructs me to the heav'nly fight,
And guards me thro' the war.
3 A friend and helper so divine
My fainting hopes shall raise;
He makes the glorious vict'ry mine,
And his shall be the praise. Scripture: Psalm 144 Languages: English
For ever-blessed be the Lord
