Soldiers of Christ, arise

Author: C. Wesley, 1707-1788 Appears in 893 hymnals Topics: Church Militant Lyrics: 1 Soldiers of Christ, arise, And put your armour on; Strong in the strength which God supplies Through His eternal Son; Strong in the Lord of Hosts, And in His mighty power, Who in the strength of Jesus trusts, Is more than conqueror. 2 Stand then in His great might, With all His strength endued; But take to arm you for the fight, The panoply of God; That having all things done, And all your conflicts passed, Ye may o'ercome, through Christ alone, And stand entire at last. 3 Leave no unguarded place, No weakness of the soul; Take every virtue, every grace, And fortify the whole; Indissolubly joined, To battle all proceed; But arm yourselves with all the mind That was in Christ, your Head.

Jerusalem the Golden

Author: Bernard of Cluny; John M. Neale Appears in 911 hymnals Topics: Church Militant and Triumphant; Church Militant and Triumphant Lyrics: 1 Jerusalem the golden, With milk and honey blest!. Beneath thy contemplation Sink heart and voice opprest. I know not, O I know not, What joys await us there; What radiancy of glory! What bliss beyond compare! 2 They stand, those halls of Zion, All jubilant with song, And bright with many an angel, And all the martyr throng. The Prince is ever in them, The daylight is serene; The pastures of the blessed Are decked in glorious sheen. 3 There is the throne of David; And there, from care released, The song of them that triumph, The shout of them that feast; And they, who with their Leader Have conquered in the fight, Forever and forever Are clad in robes of white. 4 O sweet and blessed country, The home of God's elect! O sweet and blessed country That eager hearts expect! Jesus, in mercy bring us To that dear land of rest; Who art, with God the Father And Spirit, ever blest. Amen.

The Church's one foundation

Author: Rev. S. J. Stone Meter: 7.6 D Appears in 859 hymnals Topics: Church Militant Lyrics: 1 The Church's one Foundation Is Jesus Christ her Lord; She is His new creation By water and the word: From heaven He came and sought her To be His holy Bride; With His own blood he bought her, And for her life He died. 2 Elect from every nation, Yet one o'er all the earth, Her charter of salvation, One Lord, one Faith, one Birth; One holy Name she blesses, Partakes one holy food, And to one hope she presses, With every grace endued. 3 Though with a scornful wonder Men see her sore opprest, By schisms rent asunder, By heresies distrest, Yet saints their watch are keeping, Their cry goes up, "How long?" And soon the night of weeping Shall be the morn of song. 4 'Mid toil and tribulation, And tumult of her war, She waits the consummation Of peace for evermore; Till with the vision glorious Her longing eyes are blest, And the great Church victorious Shall be the Church at rest. 5 Yet she on earth hath union With God the Three in One, And mystic sweet communion With those whose rest is won: O happy ones and holy! Lord, give us grace that we, Like them, the meek and lowly, On high may dwell with Thee. Amen. Used With Tune: [The Church's one foundation]
