Author: Hannah Thurston Hymnal: His Worthy Praise #13 (1915) First Line: Brave men are needed for Christ today Refrain First Line: Quit you like men, be strong Lyrics: 1 Brave men are needed for Christ today,
Out where the battle is long;
Forth at the summons, the call obey,
Quit you like men, be strong!
Refrain:
Quit you like men, be strong,
Hard is the fight and long;
Onward and fail not,
Forward and quail not,
Quit you like men, be strong!
2 Seeking not ease nor applause of men,
Enter the fight against wrong;
Suff’ring defeat, but to rise again,
Quit you like men, be strong! [Refrain]
3 What tho’ you suffer, do not complain;
Cheer your faint heart with a song;
Let not your courage grow slack and wane,
Quit you like men, be strong! [Refrain]
4 Steadfast, unyielding, the battle press,
You to God’s army belong;
Clad in his armor of righteousness,
Vict’ry’s assured, be strong! [Refrain] Languages: English Tune Title: [Brave men are needed for Christ today]
