For Christ is our Endeavour,
Our hearts to Him belong;
His presence cheers us ever,
His love inspires our song;
We come in youth’s bright morning,
Obedient to His word,
|: And seek for our adorning,
The beauty of the Lord. :|
In fullness of His blessing,
Good work for Him we’ll do;
His name with joy confessing,
His standard-bearers true;
And He will never fail us,
Whatever may betide;
|: Though danger should assail us,
In Him we safe abide. :|
With youthful ardour glowing,
We form a Christian band;
The joy of Jesus knowing,
We for His honor stand;
For He is our Redeemer,
And to Him we belong,
|: Whose grace shall fail us never,
Whose love inspires our song. :|
---Alternative verses---
So with youth’s ardor glowing,
We willing service give;
The mind of Jesus knowing,
We for His honor live:
For He is our endeavor,
And to Him we belong;
|: Whose grace shall never fail us,
Whose love inspires our song. :|
