God Helping Me, I’ll Stand

A wor­thy sol­dier I would be

Of Christ

who gave Him­self for me

Obeying His com­mand;

And with the Gos­pel shield and sword

For truth and right

with Christ my Lord

God help­ing me

I’ll stand.

God help­ing me

I’ll stand

With His un­yield­ing band;

All times and ev­ery­where for Christ

God help­ing me

I’ll stand.

When ov­er me shall grand­ly wave

The ban­ner of the mar­tyred brave

God’s faith­ful

stead­fast band

Beneath which none e’er fought in vain

All foes and dan­gers I’ll dis­dain;

God help­ing me

I’ll stand.

Though I be wea­ry in the fight

And Sa­tan’s le­gions

in their spite

Attack on ev­ery hand

I’ll stand by Christ

my faith­ful friend

And stea­di­ly un­to the end

God help­ing me

I’ll stand.
