"STAND UP FOR JESUS"
Stand up, stand up, stand up!
Verse One:
Stand up, stand up for Jesus,
Ye soldiers of the cross,
Lift high His royal banner,
It must not suffer loss;
From vict'ry unto vict'ry,
His army shall He lead,
Till every foe is vanquished
And Christ is Lord indeed.
Verse Two:
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.
Verse Three:
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 Gos-pel armor,
Each piece put on with prayer;
Where duty calls, or danger,
Be never wanting there.
Stand up, stand up,
Stand up, stand up for Jesus!
