Arise, Ye Saints, Arise!

Thomas Kelly·Modern

Verse 1

Arise, ye saints, arise!
The Lord our Leader is:
The foe before his banner flies,
And victory is his.

Verse 2

We soon shall see the day
When all our toils shall cease;
When we shall cast our arms away,
And dwell in endless peace.

Verse 3

This hope supports us here;
It makes our burdens light:
’Twill serve our drooping hearts to cheer,
Till faith shall end in sight:--

Verse 4

Till, of the prize possessed,
We hear of war no more;
And ever with our Leader rest,
On yonder peaceful shore.

Thomas Kelly, “Arise, Ye Saints, Arise!”

Stand Up, Stand Up for Jesus

George Duffield·Modern

Verse 1

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.

Verse 2

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.

Verse 3

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

Verse 4

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!

George Duffield, “Stand Up, Stand Up for Jesus”

God Is My Strong Salvation

James Montgomery·Modern

Verse 1

God is my strong salvation;
What foe have I to fear?
In darkness and temptation,
My Light, my Help is near:
Though hosts encamp around me,
Firm to the fight I stand;
What terror can confound me,
With God at my right hand?

Verse 2

Place on the Lord reliance;
My soul! with courage wait;
His truth be thine affiance,
When faint and desolate;
His might thy heart shall strengthen,
His love thy joy increase;
Mercy thy days shall lengthen;
The Lord will give thee peace.
