1  Fight the battle in the Body,

       Never fight it on your own;

    With the Body to the Head joined,

       Fight the battle on the throne.

 2  For the Body is God's armor,

       Not for anyone alone;

    When you wrestle in the Body,

       All its benefits you own.

 3  'Tis the Church on Christ established

       Satan shall not overpow'r;

    'Tis the Body built together

       Which resists the evil pow'r.

 4  In the Body, by the Headship,

       Sitting in the heavenlies,

    Struggle with the wicked spirits

       And the principalities.

 5  As a member of the Body,

       With the brethren stand for God;

    Praying always in the Spirit,

       Claim the vict'ry through the Blood.

 6  In the heav'nlies more than conqu'ror,

       In the power of His might,

    As a soldier in the army,

       In the Lord the battle fight.

 7  Keep on wrestling in the Body,

       Mighty vict'ry you will see,

    Bind and loose, God's will fulfilling,

       And the foes your food will be.
