I.
CAPTAIN
of
my
Salvation
,
hear
!
Stir
up
thy
Strength
and
bow
the
Skies
Be
Thou
the
GOD
of
Battles
near
;
In
all
thy
Majesty
arise
!
II
.
The
Day
,
the
dreadful
Day's
at
hand
!
In
Battle
cover
Thou
my
Head
:
Past
is
thy
Word
:
I
here
demand
,
And
confident
expect
thine
Aid
.
III
.
Now
arm
me
for
the
threatning
Fight
Now
let
thy
Power
descend
from
high
,
Triumphant
in
thy
Spirit's
Might
So
shall
I
every
Foe
defy
.
IV
.
I
ask
thy
Help
;
by
Thee
sent
forth
Thy
glorious
Gospel
to
proclaim
,
Be
Thou
my
Mouth
,
and
shake
the
Earth
,
And
spread
by
Me
thy
awful
Name
.
V.
Steel
me
to
Shame
,
Reproach
,
Disgrace
,
Arm
me
with
all
thy
Armour
now
,
Set
like
a
Flint
my
steady
Face
,
Harden
to
Adamant
my
Brow
.
VI
.
Bold
may
I
wax
,
exceeding
bold
My
high
Commission
to
perform
,
Nor
shrink
thy
harshest
Truths
t'
unfold
,
But
more
than
meet
the
gathering
Storm
.
VII
.
Adverse
to
Earth's
rebellious
Throng
,
Still
may
I
turn
my
fearless
Face
,
Stand
as
an
Iron
Pillar
strong
,
And
stedfast
as
a
Wall
of
Brass
.
VIII
.
Give
me
thy
Might
,
Thou
GOD
of
Power
;
Then
let
or
Men
or
Fiends
assail
!
Strong
in
thy
Strength
,
I'll
stand
a
Tower
Impregnable
to
Earth
or
Hell
.
