Author: George Heath Hymnal: The Hymnal of The Evangelical United Brethren Church #255 (1957) Meter: 6.6.8.6 Lyrics: 1 My soul, be on thy guard,
Ten thousand foes arise;
The hosts of sin are pressing hard
To draw thee from the skies.
2 O watch and fight, and pray;
The battle ne'er give o'er;
Renew it boldly every day,
And help divine implore.
3 Ne'er think the victory won,
Nor lay thine armor down;
Thine arduous work will not be done
Till thou obtain the crown.
4 Fight on, my soul, till death
Shall bring thee to thy God;
He'll take thee, at thy parting breath,
Up to His blest abode.
Amen. Scripture: Mark 13:37 Tune Title: LABAN
My Soul, Be on Thy Guard
