YE SOLDIERS OF THE CROSS




Stand up! stand up for Jesus!
Ye soldiers of the cross,
Lift high His royal banner;
It must not suffer loss.
From victory unto victory
His army shall He lead,
Till every foe is vanquished
And Christ is Lord indeed.


Stand up, stand up for Jesus,
the solemn watchword hear;
If while ye sleep He suffers,
away with shame and fear;
Where’er ye meet with evil,
within you or without,
Charge for the God of battles,
and put the foe to rout.


Stand up! stand up for Jesus!
The trumpet-call obey;
Forth to the mighty conflict
In this His glorious day.
Ye that are men, now serve Him
Against unnumbered foes;
Your courage rise with danger,
And strength to strength oppose.


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 armour,
And, watching unto prayer;
Where duty calls, or danger,
Be never wanting there.


Stand up, stand up for Jesus,
each soldier to his post,
Close up the broken column,
and shout through all the host:
Make good the loss so heavy,
in those that still remain,
And prove to all around you
that death itself is gain.


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.


---Alternative verses---


Stand up! stand up for Jesus!
The trumpet-call obey;
Forth to the mighty conflict
In this His glorious day.
Ye that are men, now serve Him
Against unnumbered foes;
Let courage rise with danger,
And strength to strength oppose.


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 armour,
Each piece put on with prayer;
Where duty calls, or danger,
Be never wanting there.
