# Hear the voice of our Commander standing firm, Holy pilgrims, take the armor, standing firm; Shod in gospel preparation, Sword and helmet of salvation, Meekly hold the true position, standing firm. * Refrain: Fear not, brethren, firm and true, Whate'er thy foe may be; Jesus fought the battle through, And gives to us the victory. # If it be thy lot to suffer, standing firm, Vilest slander tongue can utter, standing firm; Shout and sing, for then is given, Greater thy reward in heaven, When the wicked far are driven, standing firm. # In the time of sore temptation, standing firm, Grace will be thy sure salvation, standing firm; Virtue crown thy soul with honor, Sin resisted tempts no longer, Faith in conflict waxes stronger, standing firm. # 'Mid the battle's raging fury, standing firm, Face the legions dark before thee, standing firm; In the strength of our Redeemer, Make the pow'rs of hell surrender, Be a valiant overcomer, standing firm
