Be Strong In The Lord

Author: W. W. Clark Hymnal: The Cyber Hymnal #9411 Refrain First Line: Then awake! then awake! Lyrics: 1 Be strong in the Lord, Tho’ surrounded by foes; Be true to your king, Tho’ all hell shall oppose; He’ll conquer their legions, He’ll vanquish their throng; The Lord is our captain, He leads us along. Refrain: Then awake! then awake! Now arise! now arise! Put on the whole armor, Be strong in the Lord, 2 We fight not with flesh, But with powers unseen; We wrestle ’gainst darkness, Without and within; The conflict is raging, Be valiant and strong, For God is our tower, Our shield, and our song. [Refrain] 3 With loins girt with truth, We will march to the fight, And righteousness wear As a breastplate of light; Salvation our helmet, Bestowed by our Lord, The sword of the Spirit, His conquering Word. [Refrain] 4 Our leader has promised A bright starry crown, And beckons us onward To fields of renown; We hasten to follow His banner unfurled, And trusting in Jesus, We’ll conquer the world. [Refrain] Languages: English Tune Title: [Be strong in the Lord]
