Oh Men Of God, Arise

Oh men of God arise, awake from slumber’s night

Shake off sin’s drowsiness and rouse yourself to fight

Run from vain this distraction, keep your vision clear

Cast out all fleshly stowaways, refuse to harbor fear

Lift up the cup of holiness

Drink long and take your fill

Oh men of God arise

To carry out

To carry out God’s will

Oh men of God arise, take up your sword and shield

Your foe has no defense against the power they wield

Christ has gained the victory the outcome is assured

Satan is defeated by the power of God’s word

Lift up the cup of holiness

Drink long and take your fill

Oh men of God arise

To carry out

To carry out God’s will

Oh men of God arise and face the eastern skies

For Christ will soon descend with lightning in his eyes

Then our ancient foe long vanquished will meet his rightful end

And sin’s dark night of terror will never fall again.

Lift up the cup of holiness

Drink long and take your fill

Oh men of God arise

To carry out

To carry out God’s will
