Nehemiah 6:11: A Christian, should I fly, or yield

by Charles Wesley 1707–1788

From Short Hymns on Select Passages of the Holy Scriptures (1762) · Osborn ed., vol. 9 (1870)

Religion

A Christian, should I fly, or yield,
Arm'd by my heavenly Lord
With faith's impenetrable shield.
And with His Spirit's sword?
Let heathen shrink, and hirelings fly:
The champion of my God,
The conqueror of the world am I,
Through my Redeemer's blood.
