BE STRONG, BE STRONG, MY SOUL
Don Fortner
(Tune:
This Is My Father's World #39 SMD)
Be
strong, be strong, my soul,
Be
strong in Christ the Lord;
Yes, in
the power of His might,
Be
strong and fight for God.
Put on the whole armor
Of God,
that you might stand
Against
the wiles of satan and,
Having
done all, to stand.
The girdle of God's truth
Breastplate
of righteousness,
And
shoes of gospel peace now take,
And
join the cause of Christ!
Above all, take the shield
Of
faith in Jesus Christ,
By which
you shall quench all the darts,
Which
satan at you casts.
Salvation's
helmet wear;
The
Spirit's sword hold fast;
And
pray always for grace and strength
To
honor Jesus Christ!
Pray for your comrades in
The
cause of truth and grace.
God,
grant Your saints the grace we need
To triumph at the last!
