616- Soldiers of Christ Arise

Christian Life: Christian Warfare

1

Soldiers of Christ, arise,
And put your armor on,
Strong in the strength which God supplies
Through His eternal Son;
Strong in the Lord of hosts,
And in His mighty power,
Who in the strength of Jesus trusts
Is more than conqueror.

2

Stand, then, in His great might,
With all His strength endued;
But take, to arm you for the fight,
The panoply of God;
That, having all things done,
And all your conflicts passed,
You may o'ercome thro' Christ alone,
And stand entire at last.

3

From strength to strength go on;
Wrestle, and fight, and pray;
Tread all the powers of darkness down,
And win the well-fought day;
Still let the Spirit cry,
In all His soldiers "Come!"
Till Christ the Lord who reigns on high
Shall take the conquerors home.
