Soldiers of Christ, arise, And put your armor on, Strong in the strength which God supplies, Through His eternal Son; Strong in the Lord of Hosts, And in His mighty pow’r, Who in the strength of Jesus trusts Is more than conqueror. Stand then in His great might, With all His strength endued; And take, to arm you for the fight, The panoply of God, That, having all things done, And all your conflicts past, Ye may o’ercome through Christ alone, And stand complete at last. Pray, without ceasing pray, Your Captain gives the word; His summons cheerfully obey, And call upon the Lord: To God your every want In instant prayer display; Pray always; pray, and never faint; Pray, without ceasing pray. From strength to strength go on; Wrestle, and fight, and pray; Tread all the powers of darkness down, And win the well-fought day: Still let the Spirit cry In all His soldiers, “Come!” Till Christ the Lord descend from high, And take the conquerors home.
Jonathan, don't be timid playing that huge ORGAN. Looks like a Moeller Pipe Organ, open that crescendo up and alternate stops selections during end of stanzas. Pick up the volume during congregational singing.

Praise be to God....Jonathan is on the organ. Sounds wonderful Jonathan. Press on brother, press on. Be of service to the church of God.
Soldiers of Christ, arise,
And put your armor on,
Strong in the strength which God supplies,
Through His eternal Son;
Strong in the Lord of Hosts,
And in His mighty pow’r,
Who in the strength of Jesus trusts
Is more than conqueror.
Stand then in His great might,
With all His strength endued;
And take, to arm you for the fight,
The panoply of God,
That, having all things done,
And all your conflicts past,
Ye may o’ercome through Christ alone,
And stand complete at last.
Pray, without ceasing pray,
Your Captain gives the word;
His summons cheerfully obey,
And call upon the Lord:
To God your every want
In instant prayer display;
Pray always; pray, and never faint;
Pray, without ceasing pray.
From strength to strength go on;
Wrestle, and fight, and pray;
Tread all the powers of darkness down,
And win the well-fought day:
Still let the Spirit cry
In all His soldiers, “Come!”
Till Christ the Lord descend from high,
And take the conquerors home.
The congregation should stop talking when the intro is being played.

A congregation of chatty Cathys very disrespectful to the musicians.
