Behold the Christian warrior stand
1
Behold the Christian warrior standIn all the armor of his God;The Spirit's sword is in his hand,His feet are with the Gospel shod.
2
In panoply of truth complete,Salvation's helmet on his head;With righteousness a breast-plate meet,And faith's broad shield before him spread,
3
Undaunted to the field he goes;Yet vain were skill and valor there,Unless, to foil his legion foes,He takes the trustiest weapon, prayer.
4
Thus, strong in his Redeemer's strength,Sin, death, and hell, he tramples down;Fights the good fight, and wins at length,Through mercy, an immortal crown.
