EARTH'S BATTLE by OLIVER MURRAY EDWARDS

First Line: FIGHT WELL, ENCASED IN CHRIST'S ARMOR
Last Line: NO MATTER WHAT ELSE BETIDE.
Subject(s): BIBLE; FIGHTS; RELIGION; RELIGIOUS DISCRIMINATION; VICTORY; THEOLOGY; RELIGIOUS CONFLICT;

Fight well, encased in Christ's armor,
The lusts of the flesh, O Soul,
'Til the Spirit within shall conquer,
And reach the Heavenly goal!

Follow the Christ into battle,
With God's Spirit close beside;
Then thou shalt be crowned the Victor
No matter what else betide.
