Stand Up, Stand Up for Jesus

A tragic farm accident cut short the life of Dudley Atkins Tyng. The bold, outspoken young priest served the Lord wholeheartedly. Among his last words were those he spoke to his father to tell others to stand up for Jesus. When hearing that account during Tyng's memorial service, the Rev. George Duffield, Jr. was inspired to write the poem, Stand Up, Stand Up for Jesus. Tyng's words have long outlived him and provide inspiration to us today to serve Jesus to our fullest. In these tumultuous times, the world attempts to subdue and crush our witness for the Lord but it is that message that is the hope of the world. It is the peace that passes understanding and the cleansing that washes away our sins and it is what the world needs now. Lord, give us a burden for souls and boldness to speak your Gospel.
