Christian Warfare

Arouse

ye Christ­ians

stand unit­ed

In this ho­ly war­fare

With shoul­der touch­ing shoul­der

march;

Go forth to do and dare.

Then stand ye brave­ly

know no fear;

God pro­mised thro’ His Son

That great­er vic­t’ries yet are ours

If faith doth lead us on.

Let no­thing daunt—no foes af­fright

God’s brave ones nev­er wa­ver;

We’ll win the day and plant the cross;

Sweet rest comes af­ter la­bor.

Sleep not nor slum­ber—e’er on guard

We’ll meet the foe ad­vanc­ing;

Each scar and stripe more hon­or gains;

Our com­ing joys en­hanc­ing.

E’en down to death

if God should lead

To serve the cause of Je­sus;

All earth­ly praise can­not com­pare

With glo­ries God will give us.
