Savior, more than life to me,
I am clinging, clinging close to thee;
Let thy precious blood applied,
Keep me ever, ever near thy side.
Thro’ this changing world below,
Lead me gently, gently as I go;
Trusting thee, I cannot stray,
I can never, never lose my way.
Let me love thee more and more,
Till this fleeting, fleeting life is o’er,
Till my soul is lost in love
In a brighter, brighter world above.
Chorus
Ev’ry day, ev’ry hour,
Let me feel thy cleansing pow’r.
May thy tender love to me
Bind me closer, closer, Lord, to thee.
Fannie J. Crosby
Stand up!-stand up for Jesus!
Ye soldiers of the cross;
Lift high His royal banner,
It must not suffer loss;
From vict’ry unto vict’ry
His army shall He lead,
Till ev’ry foe is vanquish’d,
And Christ is Lord indeed.
Stand up!-stand up for Jesus!
The trumpet call obey;
Forth to the mighty conflict,
In this His glorious day.
Ye that are men, now serve Him
Against unnumbered foes;
Let courage rise with danger,
And strength to strength oppose.
Stand up!-stand up for Jesus!
Stand in His strength alone;
The arm of flesh will fail you,
Ye dare not trust your own:
Put on the gospel armor,
Each piece put on with prayer;
Where duty calls, or danger,
Be never wanting there.
Stand up!-stand up for Jesus!
The strife will not be long;
This day the noise of battle,
The next, the victor’s song.
To him that overcometh,
A crown of life shall be;
He with the King of Glory
Shall reign eternally!
Rev. George Duffield
