Hymnal: The Seventh-Day Adventist Hymn and Tune Book #1240 (1886) First Line: O Christian, awake! 'tis the Master's command Lyrics: 1 O Christian, awake! 'tis the Master's command;
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.
Chorus:
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 wouldst o'er-throw,
And stand like the brave, with thy face to the foe. [Chorus]
3 The cause of thy Master with vigor defend;
Be watchful, be zealous, and fight to the end;
Wherever he leads thee, go, valiantly go,
And stand like the brave, with thy face to the foe. [Chorus]
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. [Chorus] Topics: Bible Songs Missionary Songs Scripture: Romans 13:11-12 Tune Title: [O Christian, awake! 'tis the Master's command]
