Hymn/Song Information

Come Christians be valiant our Jesus is

Come, Christians, be valiant,
our Jesus is near us,
We'll conquer the powers
of darkness and sin;
Through grace and the Spirit
we'll glory inherit,
And peace, like a river,
give comfort within.

We have trials and cares,
and hardships and losses,
But heaven will pay us
for all that we bear;
We'll soon end in pleasures
and glory for ever,
And bright crowns of glory
for ever we'll wear.

Young converts, be humble,
the prospect is blooming,
The wings of kind angels
around you are spread;
While some are oppressed
with sin and are mourning,
The spirits of joy
upon you is shed.

Live near to our Captain,
and always obey him,
This world, flesh,
and Satan must all be denied;
Both care and diligence,
and prayer without ceasing,
Will safe land young converts
to riches on high.

O mourners, God bless you,
don't faint in the spirit,
Believe, and the Spirit
our pardon he'll give;
He's now interceding
and pleading his merit,
Give up, and your souls
he will quickly receive.

If truly a mourner,
he's promised you comfort,
His good promises stand
in his sacred word;
O hearken and hear them,
all glory, all glory,
The mourners are filled
with the presence of God.

O sinners, my bowels
do move with desire;
Why stand you gazing
on the works of the Lord?
O fly from the flames
of devouring fire,
And wash your pollution
in Jesus's blood.

Brethren, in sweet gales
we are all breezing,
My soul feels the mighty,
the heavenly flame;
I'm now on my journey,
my faith is increasing,
All glory and praise
to God and the Lamb.
