Arm These Thy Soldiers, Mighty Lord

Arm these Thy soldiers, mighty Lord,

With shield of faith and Spirit's sword.

Forth to the battle may they go

And boldly fight against the foe.

With banner of the cross unfurled,

They overcome the evil world

And so at last receive from Thee

The palm and crown of victory.

Come, ever blessèd Spirit, come

And make Thy servants' heart Thy home.

May each a living temple be

Hallowed forever, Lord, to Thee.

Enrich that temple's holy shrine

With sevenfold gifts of grace divine;

With wisdom, light, and knowledge bless,

With counsel, strength, and godliness.

O Trinity in Unity,

One only God in Persons Three,

In Whom, through Whom, by Whom, we live,

To Thee we praise and glory give.

Oh, grant us so to use Thy grace

That we may see Thy glorious face

And ever with the heavenly host

Praise Father, Son and Holy Ghost!
