Heavenward ‎#122

122. Be strong in Jehovah, though hard be the fight

1 Be strong in Jehovah, though hard be the fight,
We'll conquer, we know, in the pow'r of His might;
Put on the whole armor of God every one,
For it alone shelters till victory's won.

Refrain:
Be strong in Jehovah, be strong in His might,
Be strong in Jehovah, tho' hard be the fight;
Put on the whole armor of God ev'ry one,
And it shall protect you till warfare is done.

2 Thus sing while we march thro' the midst of our foes,
Who stand all determined our way to oppose;
We conquer their legion, our battle song raise;
The Lord is our Captain; His name ever praise. [Refrain]

3 With loins girt with truth we may stand in the fight,
And righteousness placed as our breastplate so bright,
Our feet shod with sandals prepared for the war,
The gospel of peace which our foes shall not mar. [Refrain]
