Verse 1 ~
Stand up, stand up for Jesus!
Ye soldiers of the cross;
Lift high His royal banner,
It must not suffer loss:
From vict’ry unto vict’ry,
His army shall He lead,
Till every foe is vanquished,
And Christ is Lord indeed.
Verse 2 ~
Stand up, stand up for Jesus!
The trumpet call obey:
Forth to the mighty conflict,
In this His glorious day;
Ye that are Christ's now serve Him
Against unnumbered foes;
Let courage rise with danger,
And strength to strength oppose.
Verse 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 calls the voice of duty,
Be never wanting there.
Verse 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.
