STAND UP! STAND UP FOR JESUS

Stand up! – stand up for Jesus!\nYe soldiers of the Cross;\nLift high his royal banner,\nIt must not suffer loss.\nFrom victory unto victory\nHis army he shall lead,\nTill every foe is vanquished,\nAnd Christ is Lord indeed.\n2. Stand up! – stand up for Jesus!\nThe solemn watchword hear,\nIf while ye sleep he suffers,\nAway with shame and fear;\nWhere’er ye meet with evil,\nWithin you or without,\nCharge for the God of battles,\nAnd put the foe to rout.\n3. Stand up! – stand up for Jesus!\nThe trumpet call obey,\nForth to the mighty conflict\nIn this his glorious day.\nYe that are men now serve him\nAgainst unnumbered foes;\nLet courage rise with danger,\nAnd strength to strength oppose.\n4. Stand up! – Stand up for Jesus!\nStand in his strength alone;\nThe arm of flesh will fail you,\nYe dare not trust your own.\nPut on the gospel armour,\nEach piece put on with prayer;\n1 1 3\nWhere duty calls or danger,\nBe never wanting there!\n5. Stand up! – Stand up for Jesus!\nThe strife will not be long;\nThis day the noise of battle,\nThe next the victor’s song.\nTo him that overcometh\nA crown of life shall be;\nHe with the King of glory\nShall reign eternally.
