When temptation surges round you,
darkness crowds you all around,
"Take it easy," Satan urges you,
"Leave your crown to fortune's tide."
Refrain
Warriors steadfast and stand still!
Look unto your victorious Lord!
Jesus triumphed over Satan,
let us battle in His might.
When your peers waver and linger,
turn allegiance, run away,
When your kindred mocks and chides you,
joins hands with the enemy.
Refrain
When this world with all its pleasures,
seeks to lay a net for you:
With its glories, cares and passions,
make you wild and lose your faith.
Refrain
When you're wearied with all troubles,
burdens from your home and work,
Pains and losses make you suffer,
while your labour goes in vain.
Refrain
Soon the battle will be over,
and the devil will be bound.
Soon the church will hear the trumpet,
and will rise in glorious triumph.
Refrain
Our King shall come triumphantly,
o'er the whole world take His reign.
Then all nations pledge allegiance,
exalt Jesus and praise Him.
Refrain
