Stand up stand up for Jesus
1. Stand up! stand up for Jesus! |
|
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 that are men, now 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 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. |
The battle isn’t fought as humans fight but through faith and prayer. As the song says “flesh will fail you.”
