1. Stand up, stand up for Jesus, ye soldiers of the word;
Lift high His royal banner, Ye must not be deterred:
From victory unto victory His army shall He lead,
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;
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, Each piece put on with 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.
