1.

Fight for truth and righteousness;
In the strife, press through!
Tear down all of Satan’s nets,
And walk the way so new!

Chorus:

Strive with God’s full armor on;
Use the Spirit’s Sword.
Slay each foe you come upon,
O soldier of the Lord!

2.

In Christ’s power heed the call,
Filled with zeal and fire.
There’s no task too great or small,
Whate’er He may require.

3.

Battles may be hard and long,
But in faith we fight.
We’re God’s work; in Him we’re strong.
His Spirit is our might!

4.

Hate and scorn our lot shall be
As God’s warriors here;
Yet we fight unceasingly
For every truth so dear!

5.

Spirit’s oneness in God’s house
Through the cross we gain.
Life and truth are flowing out;
Yes, praise His Holy name!
(Eph. 2:16)
