654. Soldiers of Christ, arise! And put your armor on

1 Soldiers of Christ, arise!
And put your armor on,
Strong in the strength which God supplies
Through his beloved Son.

2 Strong in the Lord of Hosts,
And in his mighty power;
Who in the strength of Jesus trusts,
Is more than conqueror.

3 Stand, then, in his great might,
With all his strength endued;
But take, to army you for the fight,
The panoply of God.

4 Leave no unguarded place,
No weakness of the soul;
Take every virtue, every grace,
And fortify the whole.

5 That having all things done,
And all your conflicts past,
You may o'ercome through Christ alone,
And stand entire at last.
