Sacred Songs and Solos Lyrics
Hymn No.676

First Line: Gird on the sword and armour ,

Gird on the sword and armour !
Go, raise the banner high !
The Captain of Salvation
To thee is ever nigh.

Then wave the glorious banner !
Press forward in His name ; . .
Fear not, for soon thy Captain
Will victory proclaim !

2 Gird on the sword and armour !
Let faith be thy strong shield ;
His promise shall sustain thee
On every battlefield.

3 Gird on the sword and armour !
Press on, the foe to fight ;
No enemy can harm thee.
For God sustains the right.
