Stand Like the Brave

O Christ­ian

awake! ’tis the Mas­ter’s com­mand;

With hel­met and shield

and a sword in thy hand

To meet the bold tempt­er

go

fear­less­ly go

Then stand like the brave

with thy face to the foe.

Stand like the brave

stand like the brave

Stand like the brave

with thy face to the foe.

The cause of thy Mas­ter with vi­gor de­fend;

Be watch­ful

be zea­lous

and fight to the end;

Wherever He leads thee

go

val­iant­ly go

Then stand like the brave

with thy face to the foe.

Press on

nev­er doubt­ing

thy cap­tain is near

With grace to sup­ply

and with com­fort to cheer;

His love like a stream in the de­sert will flow;

Then stand like the brave

with thy face to the foe.
