Stand Up! Stand Up! For Jesus

          -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.

          -2-

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

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

          -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 those who vanquish evil
          A crown of life shall be;
          They with the King of Glory
          Shall reign eternally.

          ***Scripture***

            Isaiah 13:2 (KJV) Lift ye up a banner upon the high mountain, exalt the voice unto them, shake the hand, that they may go into the gates of the nobles

            Revelation 2:10 (KJV) Fear none of those things which thou shalt suffer: behold, the devil shall cast some of you into prison, that ye may be tried; and ye shall have tribulation ten days: be thou faithful unto death, and I will give thee a crown of life..
