Soldiers of Christ Arise

Soldiers of Christ, arise,

And put your armour on;

Strong in the strength which God supplies,

Through His eternal Son;

Strong in the Lord of hosts,

And in His mighty power;

Who in the strength of Jesus trusts

Is more than conqueror.

Stand, then, in His great might,

With all His strength endued;

And take, to arm you for the fight,

The panoply of God.

Leave no unguarded place,

No weakness of the soul;

Take every virtue, every grace,

And fortify the whole.

From strength to strength go on,

Wrestle and fight and pray;

Tread all the powers of darkness down,

And win the well-fought day.

That having all things done,

And all your conflicts past,

Ye may o’ercome, through Christ alone,

And stand complete at last.
