410. Stand Up for Jesus

1 Stand up, stand up, for Jesus,
Ye soldiers of the cross!
Lift high His royal banner -
It must not suffer loss.
From vict'ry unto vict'ry
His army shall He lead;
Till ev'ry foe is vanquished,
And Christ is Lord indeed.

Chorus:
Stand up for Jesus,
Ye soldiers of the cross!
Lift you His royal banner -
It must not, it must not suffer loss!

2 Stand up, stand up, for Jesus,
The trumpet call obey;
Forth to the mighty conflict
In this His glorious day:
Ye that are men now serve Him
Against unnumbered foes;
Let courage rise with danger,
and strength to strength oppose. [Chorus]

3 Stand up, stand up for Jesus,
The strife will not be long;
This day the noise of battle -
The next, the victor's song.
To Him that overcometh
A crown of life shall be:
He with the King of glory
Shall reign eternally. [Chorus]
