I take my breastplate, sword and shield,
And boldly march into the field.
The banner o’er my head is love,
I draw my rations from above.
The world, the flesh and Satan too
Unite and strive what they can do.
On thee, O Lord, I humbly call,
Uphold me, or my soul must fall.
I’ve listed and I mean to fight,
Till all my foes are put to flight.
