Hymnal: Junior Songs #45 (1892) First Line: O Christian, awake! for the strife is at hand Refrain First Line: Stand like the brave Lyrics: 1 O Christian, awake! for the strife is at hand,
With helmet and shield and a sword in thy hand;
To meet the bold tempter, go, fearlessly, go,
And stand like the brave, with thy face to the foe.
Refrain:
Stand like the brave,
Stand like the brave,
Stand like the brave, with thy face to the foe.
2 Whatever thy danger, take heed and beware,
And turn not thy back, for no armor is there;
The legions of darkness if thou would'st o'erthrow,
Then stand like the brave, with thy face to the foe. [Refrain]
3 The cause of thy Master with vigor defend;
O watch, fight, and pray--persevere to the end;
Wherever he leads thee, go, valiantly go,
Then stand like the brave, with thy face to the foe. [Refrain]
4 Press on, never doubting; thy Captain is near,
With grace to supply, and with comfort to cheer;
His love, like a stream, in the desert will flow,
Then stand like the brave, with thy face to the foe. [Refrain]
