192 O Church, Arise

O, church arise and put your armor onHear the call of Christ our captainFor now the weak can say that they are strongIn the strength that God has givenWith shield of faith and belt of truthWe'll stand against the devil's liesAn army bold whose battle cry is loveReaching out to those in darkness Our call to war, to love the captive soul,But to rage against the captorAnd with the sword that makes the wounded wholeWe will fight with faith and valor When faced with trials on ev'ry side,We know the outcome is secure,And Christ will have the prize for which He diedAn inheritance of nations
