Be Strong In the Lord

1 Put the ar­mor on,
That with firm­ness you may stand
In the ev­il day,
Ready at your Lord’s com­mand;
Girded with the sav­ing truth,
Counsel give to age and youth,
Christian sol­dier, oh!
Be strong in the Lord!

Refrain:
Be strong in the Lord,
Trusting Him as you fight;
Be strong in the Lord,
And the pow’r of His might!

2 Spotless be and pure,
With your breast­plate right­eous­ness,
Looking to the Lord,
Who each ef­fort true will bless;
Spread the Gos­pel of His peace,
That will fet­tered souls re­lease,
Dauntless ev­er, oh!
Be strong in the Lord! [Refrain]

3 All along life’s way,
Take the migh­ty shield of faith,
With it quell the foe,
Proving loy­al un­to death,
Let your hel­met always be
Tidings of sal­va­tion free,
Pressing on­ward, oh!
Be stro­ng in the Lord! [Refrain]

4 With the Word of God,
Follow Christ what­e’er be­tide,
Knowing all the way
He will be your friend and guide,
Ever watch­ing un­to pray’r,
Failing not to do and dare,
Trusting, toil­ing, oh!
Be strong in the Lord! [Refrain]
