Stand Up, Stand Up for Jesus
Author: George Duffield Meter: 7.6.7.6 D Appears in 1,788 hymnals Topics: Temptation and Conflict Lyrics: 1 Stand up, stand up for Jesus,
as soldiers of the cross;
lift high his royal banner,
it must not suffer loss.
From vict'ry unto vict'ry,
his army shall he lead,
till ev'ry foe is vanquished
and Christ is Lord indeed.
2 Stand up, stand up for Jesus,
the trumpet call obey;
then join the mighty conflict
in this, his glorious day.
Be strong in faith and serve him
against unnumbered foes;
let courage rise with danger,
and with God's strength oppose.
3 Stand up, stand up for Jesus,
stand in his strength alone;
the arm of flesh will fail you,
you dare not trust your own.
Put on the gospel armor,
each piece put on with prayer;
where duty calls or danger,
be ever faithful there.
4 Stand up, stand up for Jesus,
the fight will not be long -
this day the noise of battle,
the next the victor's song.
To ev'ryone who conquers,
a crown of life shall be;
we with the King of glory
shall reign eternally. Scripture: Romans 8 Used With Tune: WEBB

When Peace, like a River
Author: Horatio G. Spafford Hymnal: Moravian Book of Worship #754 (1995) Meter: 11.8.11.9 with refrain Topics: Temptation and Conflict First Line: When peace, like a river, attendeth my way Refrain First Line: It is well with my soul Lyrics: 1 When peace like a river attendeth my way,
when sorrows like sea billows roll;
whatever my lot, you have taught me to say,
it is well, it is well with my soul.
Refrain:
It is well with my soul,
it is well, it is well with my soul.
2 Though Satan should buffet, though trials should come,
let this blessed assurance control,
that Christ has regarded my helpless estate,
and has shed his own blood for my soul. [Refrain]
3 My sin, O, the bliss of this glorious thought!
My sin - not in part, but the whole -
is nailed to his cross and I bear it no more,
praise the Lord, praise the Lord, O my soul! [Refrain]
4 And, Lord, haste the day when my faith shall be sight,
the clouds be rolled back as a scroll;
the trump shall resound, and the Lord shall descend,
even so, it is well with my soul. [Refrain] Scripture: Romans 8 Languages: English Tune Title: VILLE DU HAVRE
When Peace, like a River
George Duffield
1818 - 1888 Topics: Temptation and Conflict Author of "Stand Up, Stand Up for Jesus" in Moravian Book of Worship Duffield, George, Jr., D.D., son of the Rev. Dr. Duffield, a Presbyterian Minister, was born at Carlisle, Pennsylvania, Sept. 12, 1818, and graduated at Yale College, and at the Union Theological Seminary, New York. From 1840 to 1847 he was a Presbyterian Pastor at Brooklyn; 1847 to 1852, at Bloomfield, New Jersey; 1852 to 1861, at Philadelphia; 1861 to 1865, at Adrian, Michigan; 1865 to 1869, at Galesburg, Illinois; 1869, at Saginaw City, Michigan; and from 1869 at Ann Arbor and Lansing, Michigan. His hymns include;—
1. Blessed Saviour, Thee I love. Jesus only. One of four hymns contributed by him to Darius E. Jones's Temple Melodies, 1851. It is in 6 stanzas of 6 lines. In Dr. Hatfield's Church Hymnbook it is given in 3 stanzas. The remaining three hymns of the same date are:—
2. Parted for some anxious days. Family Hymn.
3. Praise to our heavenly Father, God. Family Union.
4. Slowly in sadness and in tears. Burial.
5. Stand up, stand up for Jesus. Soldiers of the Cross. The origin of this hymn is given in Lyra Sac. Americana, 1868, p. 298, as follows:—
"I caught its inspiration from the dying words of that noble young clergyman, Rev. Dudley Atkins Tyng, rector of the Epiphany Church, Philadelphia, who died about 1854. His last words were, ‘Tell them to stand up for Jesus: now let us sing a hymn.' As he had been much persecuted in those pro-slavery days for his persistent course in pleading the cause of the oppressed, it was thought that these words had a peculiar significance in his mind; as if he had said, ‘Stand up for Jesus in the person of the downtrodden slave.' (Luke v. 18.)"
Dr. Duffield gave it, in 1858, in manuscript to his Sunday School Superintendent, who published it on a small handbill for the children. In 1858 it was included in The Psalmist, in 6 stanzas of 8 lines. It was repeated in several collections and in Lyra Sac. Amer., 1868, from whence it passed, sometimes in an abbreviated form, into many English collections. [Rev. F. M. Bird, M.A.]
