Rise! To Arms! With Prayer Employ You
Author: Wilhelm E. Arends, 1677-1721; John M. Sloan, 1835-after 1890 Hymnal: Christian Worship (1993) #455 (1993) Meter: 8.9.8.8.9.8.6.6.4.4.4.8 Hymnal Title: Christian Worship (1993) Lyrics: 1 Rise! To arms! With prayer employ you,
O Christians, lest the foe destroy you,
For Satan has designed your fall.
Wield God's Word, a weapon glorious;
Against each foe you'll be victorious;
Our God will set you o'er them all.
Fear not the prince of hell -
Here is Immanuel! Sing hosanna!
The strong ones yield To Christ, our shield,
And we as conqu'rors hold the field.
2 Jesus, all your children cherish,
And keep them that they never perish
Whom you have purchased with your blood.
Let new life to us be given
That we may look to you in heaven
Whenever fearful is our mood.
Your Spirit on us pour
That we may love you more,
Hearts o'erflowing; And then shall we,
From sin set free, Sing praise through all eternity. Topics: Commitment; Commitment Languages: English Tune Title: WACHET AUF

the watchmen on the heights are crying;
"awake, Jerusalem, arise!"
Midnight hears the welcome voices,
and at the thrilling cry rejoices:
"Oh, where are all you virgins wise?
The Bridegroom comes, awake!
Your lamps with gladness take! Alleluia!
With bridal care yourselves prepare
to meet the Bridegroom, who is near."

Christ Jesus, God's own Son. Hail! Hosanna!
We enter all the marriage hall
to eat the Supper at your call.
3 Now let all the heav'ns adore you,
let saints and angels sing before you
with harp and cymbal's clearest tone.
Of one pearl each shining portal,
where, dwelling with the choir immortal,
we gather round your radiant throne.
No vision ever brought,
no ear has ever caught such great glory;
therefore will we in victory
sing hymns of praise eternally. Topics: Second Coming Scripture: Matthew 25:1-13 Languages: English Tune Title: WACHET AUF

Where Thou hast bid us sup with Thee.

And men and angels sing before Thee,
With harp and cymbal's clearest tone;
Of one pearl each shining portal,
Where we are with the choir immortal,
Of angels round Thy dazzling throne;
No eye has seen, nor ear
Hath yet attained to hear
What there is ours.
But we rejoice, and sing to Thee
Our hymns of joy eternally.
