450. Soldiers of Christ, Arise

1 Soldiers of Christ, arise
And put your armor on,
Strong in the strength which God supplies
Thro' His eternal Son.

2 Strong in the Lord of hosts
And in His mighty pow'r.
Who in the strength of Jesus trusts
Is more than conqueror.

3 Stand, then, in His great might,
With all His strength endued;
But take, to arm you for the fight,
The panoply of God,

4 That, having all things done
And all your conflicts past,
Ye may o'ercome through Christ alone
And stand entire at last.

5 From strength to strength go on,
Wrestle and fight and pray;
Tread all the powers of darkness down
And win the well-fought day.

Amen.
