Author:A. W. S.
Tune:[Let us stand for Christ, firmly stand]
Composer:Rev. A. W. Spooner

3. Let Us Stand for Christ

1 Let us stand for Christ, firmly stand,
Sound his praises wide o'er the land;
Shout the battle cry, for the foe is nigh,
Stand, ye brave endeavor band.

Chorus:
Let us stand for Christ, raise the banner high,
Valiant soldiers be, for the foe is nigh;
Firmly stand for Christ, ever brave and true,
For the Lord will stand by you.

2 For the Church we'll stand, one and all,
Quick to hear and heed Jesus call;
With a willing hand doing God's command,
Till the hosts of Satan fall. [Chorus]

3 Soon the heavy cross we'll lay down,
And receive a bright, shining crown;
Round the throne we'll stand, blest Endeavor band,
And receive a welcome home. [Chorus]
