Soldiers of Christ, arise

Author: Charles Wesley, 1707-1788 Hymnal: Service Book and Hymnal of the Lutheran Church in America #564b (1958) Topics: The Church Year Saints' Days - Minor Festivals Lyrics: 1 Soldiers of Christ, arise And put your armor on, Strong in the strength which God supplies Through his eternal Son; 2 Strong in the Lord of Hosts, And in his mighty power; Who in the strength of Jesus trusts Is more than conqueror. 3 Stand then, in his great might, With all his strength endued; But take, to arm you for the fight, The panoply of God. 4 To keep your armor bright Attend with constant care, Still walking in your Captain's sight, And watching unto prayer. 5 From strength to strength go on, Wrestle and fight and pray; Tread all the powers of darkness down, And win the well-fought day; 6 That, having all things done, And all your conflicts past, Ye may o'ercome through Christ alone, And stand entire at last.

A-men. 3 There is the throne of David, And there, from care released, The song of them that triumph, The shout of them that feast; And they, who with their Leader Have conquered in the fight, For ever and for ever Are clad in robes of white. 4 O sweet and blesséd country, The home of God's elect! O sweet and blesséd country That eager hearts expect! Jesus, in mercy bring us To that dear land of rest, Who art, with God the Father, And Spirit, ever blest. Amen.
