Fight the battle in the Body

Fight the battle in the Body

Never fight it on your own;

With the Body to the Head joined

Fight the battle on the throne.

Fight the battle in the Body!

By the virtue of the Head;

Standing firmly with the Body

Into vict’ry you’ll be led.

For the Body is God’s armor

Not for anyone alone;

When you wrestle in the Body

All its benefits you own.

’Tis the Church on Christ established

Satan shall not overpow’r;

’Tis the Body built together

Which resists the evil pow’r.

In the Body

by the Headship

Sitting in the heavenlies

Struggle with the wicked spirits

And the principalities.

As a member of the Body

With the brethren stand for God;

Praying always in the Spirit

Claim the vict’ry through the Blood.

In the heav’nlies more than conqu’ror

In the power of His might

As a soldier in the army

In the Lord the battle fight.

Keep on wrestling in the Body

Mighty vict’ry you will see

Bind and loose

God’s will fulfilling

And the foes your food will be.
