1. Stand up, Stand up for Jesus, Ye soldiers of the cross; Lift high His roy-al ban-ner , it must not suf-fer loss: From vic-t'ry unto vic-t'ry His army shall be lead, Till ev-'ry foe is van-quished, and Christ is LORD in-deed.
2. Stand up, Stand up for Jesus, The trum-pet call obey; Forth into the mighty con-flict, In this His glo-rious day: Ye who are men, now serve Him A-gainst un-num-bered foes; Let cour-age rise with dan-ger, And strength to strength oppose.
3. Stand up, Stand up for Jesus, stand in His strength a-lone; The arm of flesh will fail you, Ye dare not trust your own: Put on the gos-pel ar-mor, Each piece put on with pra'r; Where du-ty calls, or dan-ger, Be nev-er want-ing there.
4. Stand up, stand up for Jesus, the strife will not be long; This day the noise of bat-tle, the next the vic-tor's song: To him who o-ver-com-eth a crown of life shall be; He, with the King of glo-ry, Shall reign e-ter-nal-ly.
