The Christian Warfare

Verse 1

Stand up, my soul; shake off your fears, and gird the gospel armor on; march to the gates of endless joy, where your great Captain Savior's gone.

Verse 2

Hell and your sins resist your course; but hell and sin are vanquished foes: your Jesus nailed them to the cross, and sang the triumph when he rose.

Verse 3

Then let my soul march boldly on, press forward to the heav'nly gate; there peace and joy eternal reign, and glitt'ring robes for conqu'rors wait.

Verse 4

There shall I wear a starry crown, and triumph in almighty grace; while all the armies of the skies join in my glorious Leader's praise.
