Stand Up, Stand Up for Jesus

George Duffield (1858) • English

Primary Scripture: Exodus 10:11

Verse 1

Stand up, stand up for Jesus ye soldiers of the cross; lift high his royal banner, it must not suffer loss. From vict'ry unto vict'ry his army he shall lead till ev'ry foe is vanquished and Christ is Lord indeed.

Verse 2

Stand up, stand up for Jesus, the trumpet call obey; forth to the mighty conflict in this his glorious day. Ye that are men now serve him against unnumbered foes; let courage rise with danger and strength to strength oppose.

Verse 3

Stand up, stand up for Jesus, stand in his strength alone; the arm of flesh will fail you, ye dare not trust your own. Put on the gospel armor, each piece put on with prayer; where duty calls or danger, be never wanting there.

Verse 4

Stand up, stand up for Jesus, the strife will not be long; this day the noise of battle, the next, the victor's song. To him that overcometh a crown of life shall be; he with the King of glory shall reign eternally.
