Author: George Duffield, Jr. Hymnal: The New Church Hymnal #206 (1976) 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'ryHis army shall He lead,Till ev'ry foe is vanquished,And Christ is Lord indeed.Stand up for Jesus,Ye soldiers of the cross;Lift high His royal banner,It must not, it must not suffer loss.2 Stand up, stand up for Jesus,The trumpet call obey;Forth to the mighty conflict,In this His glorious day:Ye who are men, now serve himAgainst unnumbered foes;Let courage rise with danger,And strength to strength oppose.Stand up for Jesus,Ye soldiers of the cross;Lift high His royal banner,It must not, it must not suffer loss.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. Stand up for Jesus,Ye soldiers of the cross;Lift high His royal banner,It must not, it must not suffer loss.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 who overcomethA crown of life shall be;He, with the King of Glory,Shall reign eternally.Stand up for Jesus,Ye soldiers of the cross;Lift high His royal banner,It must not, it must not suffer loss.
