The Excelsior Hymnal ‎#25

25. Till the Fight Is Won

1 Arise, arise, for men are wanted,
Right must triumph over wrong;
Arise, arise and stand undaunted
Tho’ the strife be fierce and long.

Refrain:
“Here am I,” shall be our answer,
True and loyal ev’ry one,
We will bear the cross of Jesus,
Till the glorious fight is won.

2 Behold, behold, His banner waving,
When the hosts of sin appear;
Go forth, go forth, the conflict braving,
Heed the call now ringing clear. [Refrain]

3 To arms, to arms, the battle’s raging,
Hasten ere the vict’ry’s won,
To arms, to arms, the wrong engaging,
Triumph ere the setting sun. [Refrain]
