O church arise and put your armor onHear the call of Christ our CaptainFor now the weak can say that they are strongIn the strength that God has given

O, Church Arise

With shield of faith and belt of truthWe’ll stand against the devil’s liesAn army bold, whose battle cry is loveReaching out to those in darkness.

Come see the cross, where love and mercy meetAs the Son of God is strickenThe see His foes lie crushed beneath His feetFor the Conqueror has risen!

And as the stone is rolled awayand Christ emerges from the grave,This vict’ry march continues ‘til the dayEv’ry eye and heart shall see Him.
