“STAND UP FOR YOURSELF”

When I read today that a father said to his daughter “STAND UP FOR YOURSELF,” I remembered the hymn:

STAND UP, STAND UP FOR JESUS!

The hymn has three verses and here is the beginning of verse one:

“Stand up, stand up, for Jesus! You soldiers of the cross, …”

The Cross

The Cross

Verse two begins like this:

“Stand up, stand up, for Jesus! Stand in his strength alone; …”

And this is the beginning of verse three (last verse):

“Stand up, stand up, for Jesus! The strife will not be long; …” 

The words of the hymn are by George Duffield (1818-88) and the music is by George J. Webb.(1803-87)

I WANT TO STAND UP FOR THE LORD JESUS CHRIST!
