Stand Firm for the Lord and Right

Representative Text

1 Stand firm for the Lord and right—
In answer to His call,
Go forth, in faith, the world to win,
The Lord hath need of all.

Chorus:
Stand firm, stand firm,
Stand firm for the Lord and right,
Have faith in God till He calls you
Where faith is lost in sight.

2 Stand firm for the Lord and right—
The hosts of sin assail,
But Jesus our Commander is
And we can never fail. [Chorus]

3 Stand firm for the Lord and right,
Whate’er it may entail;
For right is right as God is God, [Chorus]

4 And right must sure prevail. [Chorus]

5 Stand firm for the Lord and right,
The fight is not for long;
This day is heard the battle-cry,
But soon the Victor’s song. [Chorus]
