Stand Up, Stand Up for Jesus

Author: George Duffield, Jr. (1818-1888) Meter: 7.6.7.6 D Appears in 1,788 hymnals Scripture: 2 Timothy 4:6-8 Lyrics: 1 Stand up, stand up for Jesus, you soldiers of the cross! Lift high his royal banner, it must not suffer loss. From victory on to victory his army he shall lead till evil is defeated, and Christ is Lord indeed. 2 Stand up, stand up for Jesus! The trumpet call obey; then join the mighty conflict in this his glorious day. Be strong in faith and 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 power alone, for human might will fail you -- you dare not trust your own. Put on the gospel armour, keep watch with constant prayer; when duty calls or danger, be never failing there. 4 Stand up, stand up for Jesus! The fight will not be long: this day the noise of battle, the next the victor's song. To everyone who conquers, a crown of life shall be; we, with the king of glory, shall reign eternally.

Give thou the hearing ear, Fix thou the wand'ring thought, That those we teach may hear The great things thou hast wrought. 3 Speak thou for us, O Lord, In all we say of thee; According to thy Word Let all our teaching be, That so thy lambs may know Their own true Shepherd's voice, Where'er he leads them go, And in his love rejoice. 4 Live thou within us, Lord; Thy mind and will be ours; Be thou belov'd, adored, And served with all our pow'rs, That so our lives may teach Thy children what thou art, And plead, by more than speech, For thee with ev'ry heart.
