152. Gird on the Royal Armor

1 Gird on the royal armor,
Go forth in Jesus’ Name;
To those who sit in darkness
The Light of Life proclaim.

Refrain:
Gird on the royal armor,
That we the foe may face;
And trusting our Commander,
Be victors through His grace.

2 Lift up the royal standard,
Go forth our cause to win,
With helmet, shield and buckler,
Against the hosts of sin. [Refrain]

3 With righteousness our breastplate,
The Spirit’s sword in hand,
Still conquering and to conquer,
Press on at God’s command. [Refrain]
