Fight the good fight with all thy
might;
Christ is thy strength and Christ thy
right;
Lay hold on life, and it shall be
Thy joy and crown eternally.
Run the straight race through God’s
good grace,
Lift up thine eyes, and seek his face;
Life with its path before us lies;
Christ is the way, and Christ the
prize.
Cast care aside; and on thy Guide
Lean, and his mercy will provide, -
Lean, and the trusting soul shall
prove
Christ is its life, and Christ its
love.
Faint not, nor fear; his arm is near;
He changeth not, and thou art dear;
Only believe, and thou shalt see
That Christ is all in all to thee.
