O Church Arise Lyrics - Singles - Bethany Dillon & Matt Hammitt

O church arise and put your armor on 

Hear the call of Christ our captain 

For now the weak can say that they are strong 

In the strength that God has given 

With shield of faith and belt of truth 

We'll stand against the devil's lies 

An army bold whose battle cry is love 

Reaching out to those in darkness 

Our call to war, to love the captive soul 

But to rage against the captor 

And with the sword that makes the wounded whole 

We will fight in faith and valor 

When faced with trials on every side 

We know the outcome is secure 

And Christ will have the prize for which He died 

An inheritance of nations 

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 

O church arise 

O church arise 

O church arise 

O church arise 

O church arise
