[V1]
A7sus4 D G/B A/C#
O Church, arise, and put your armour on;
D/F# G Asus4 A D
hear the call of Christ our Captain.||
A7sus4 D G/B A/C#
For now the weak can say that they are strong
D/F# G Asus4 A D
in the strength that God has given. ||
D/F# G D/F# A
With shield of faith and belt of truth,
D/F# G D/F# Bm A
we'll stand against the devil's lies;||
A7sus4 D G/B A/C#
an army bold, whose battle cry is Love,
D/F# G Asus4 A D Dsus4 D
reaching out to those in darkness.
[V2]
A7sus4 D G/B A/C#
Our call to war, to love the captive soul
D/F# G Asus4 A D
But to rage against the captor;||
A7sus4 D G/B A/C#
And with the sword that makes the wounded whole,
D/F# G Asus4 A D
We will fight with faith and valour. ||
D/F# G D/F# A
When faced with trials on every side
D/F# G D/F# Bm A
We know the outcome is secure,||
A7sus4 D G/B A/C#
And Christ will have the prize for which He died,
D/F# G Asus4 A D Dsus4 D
An inheritance of nations.

[V3]
Come see the cross, where love and mercy meet,
As the Son of God is stricken;||
Then see His foes, lie crushed beneath His feet,
For the Conqueror has risen! ||
And as the stone is rolled away,
And Christ emerges from the grave,||
This victory march continues till the day
Every eye and heart shall see Him.
[V4]
So Spirit, come, put strength in every stride,
Give grace for every hurdle,||
That we may run with faith to win the prize
Of a servant good and faithful.||
As saints of old still line the way,
Retelling triumphs of His grace,||
We hear their calls, and hunger for the day
When with Christ we stand in glory.
