Soldiers of Christ, arise, And put your armour on, Strong in the strength which God supplies, Through His eternal Son; Strong in the Lord of Hosts, And in His mighty power, Who in the strength of Jesus trusts, Is more than conqueror. Stand then in His great might, With all His strength endued; But take, to arm you for the fight, The Panoply of God: That having all things done, And all your conflicts pass’d, Ye may o’ercome though Christ alone, And stand entire at last.
