fight the good fight

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 way before thee lies,

Christ is the path, and Christ the prize.




Cast care aside, lean on thy Guide;

His boundless mercy will provide;

Lean, and the trusting soul shall prove

Christ is its life, and Christ its love.




Faint not, nor fear, His arms are near,

He changeth not, and thou art dear;

Only believe, and thou shalt see

That Christ is all in all to thee
