|
<p>My soul, be on thy guard;<br>
|
|
Ten thousand foes arise;<br>
|
|
The hosts of sin are pressing hard<br>
|
|
To draw thee from the skies.</p>
|
|
<p>O watch, and fight, and pray;<br>
|
|
The battle ne’er give o’er;<br>
|
|
Renew it boldly every day,<br>
|
|
And help divine implore.</p>
|
|
<p>Never think the victory won,<br>
|
|
Nor lay thine armor down;<br>
|
|
The work of faith will not be done,<br>
|
|
Till thou obtain the crown.</p>
|
|
<p>Fight on, my soul, till death<br>
|
|
Shall bring thee to thy God;<br>
|
|
He’ll take thee, at thy parting breath,<br>
|
|
To His divine abode.</p>
