<p>Breast the wave, Christian, when it is strongest,<br>
|
|
Watch for day, Christian, when the night’s longest;<br>
|
|
Onward and upward still be thine endeavor;<br>
|
|
The rest that remaineth will be forever.</p>
|
|
<p>Fight the fight, Christian, Jesus is o’er thee;<br>
|
|
Run the race, Christian, heav’n is before thee;<br>
|
|
He Who hath promised faltereth never;<br>
|
|
The love of eternity flows on forever.</p>
|
|
<p>Lift thine eye, Christian, just as it closeth;<br>
|
|
Raise thy heart, Christian, ere it reposeth;<br>
|
|
Thee from the love of Christ nothing shall sever;<br>
|
|
And when all thy work is done, praise Him forever.</p>
