Put On the Armor

Author: Mrs. E. C. Ellsworth Hymnal: Gospel Praise Book. #81 (1885) First Line: Put on the armor of our God Refrain First Line: Then stand! stand firm, defy the foe Lyrics: 1 Put on the armor of our God, Be strong to do His will; Dare not go forth for once unarmed, Thy foes would do thee ill. Chorus: Then stand! stand firm, defy the foe! Thou in the Master’s strength shalt go, Enduring to the end Then stand! stand firm, defy the foe, Enduring to the end. 2 Put on the armor, girt with truth, The work is not thine own; Bind to thy heart the law of God, Fulfilled by Christ alone. [Chorus] 3 Put on the armor; shod with peace Thy feet shall firm endure; Tho’ snares beset and thorns shall pierce, He makes Thy footsteps sure. [Chorus] 4 Put on the armor; take thy shield, Faith in the risen Lord; Once pierced with darts still aimed at thee, He conquers with a word. [Chorus] Topics: Christian Courage and Cheer; Christian Work Languages: English Tune Title: [Put on the armor of our God]

Anonymous

Author of "Put On the Armor of Our God" in The New Christian Hymnal In some hymnals, the editors noted that a hymn's author is unknown to them, and so this artificial "person" entry is used to reflect that fact. Obviously, the hymns attributed to "Author Unknown" "Unknown" or "Anonymous" could have been written by many people over a span of many centuries.
