Stand Up, Stand Up for
Jesus
Words: George Duffield (1818-1888)
Music: George J. Webb (1803-1887)
Arrangement: Ruth Randle
The
title and lyrics for this old hymn were inspired by the
dying words of Reverend Dudley Tyng to his close friend,
George Duffield as Tyng lay bleeding from a mortal
injury. In a later sermon, Duffield preached from the
text of Eph: 6:14, adding the verses of words he
had written, and which became the lyrics of the hymn we
know as Stand Up, Stand Up for Jesus. Music
written in 1830 for an earlier hymn, by George J. Webb,
was adopted in 1888.
This beautiful, well-known hymn does not require a 1-3-5
tuning for its chromatic scale, but there are some
lovely chords available in this tuning, and the
fingering flows easily and smoothly from one chord to
another.
