1  Standing in the evil day,

    Heeding not what men may say,

    Fearing not the face of clay,

       Christian soldier, stand.

 2  Standing for the Word of God,

    Standing for the precious blood,

    Following where the saints have trod,

       Christian soldier, stand.

 3  Stand 'mid Satan's every wile,

    Stand 'mid pleasure's wanton smile,

    Stand when error would beguile;

       Christian soldier, stand.

 4  Stand till ends life's little day,

    Stand for Jesus, come what may,

    Stand and fight and watch and pray;

       Christian soldier, stand.
