GRH 528 Soldiers of Christ, Arise

(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 pow’r,
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,
Ye 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 pow’rs 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 conquerous home.
