Author: C. Wesley Hymnal: Church Book #462 (1890) Meter: 6.6.8.6 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;
And take, to arm you for the fight,
The panoply of God:
4 That having all things done,
And all your conflicts past,
Ye may o'ercome through Christ alone,
And stand entire at last.
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 Still let the Spirit cry,
In all His soldiers, "Come,"
Till Christ the Lord descends from high,
And take the conqueror home. Topics: The Christian Life Watchfulness and Fidelity; Easter Season, Second Sunday; Twenty First Sunday after Trinity Languages: English Tune Title: SILVER STREET
