Stand up! stand up for Jesus

Author: Duffield Appears in 1,784 hymnals Scripture: Ezekiel 2:6-7 Lyrics: 1 Stand up! stand up for Jesus, Ye soldiers of the cross; Lift high his royal banner, It must not suffer loss: From victory unto victory His army shall be led, Till every 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; 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! 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!
