Like Israel, safe upon the shore,
Who thought the conflict all was o'er;
Young converts view the frightful train
Of all their foes for ever slain.
But soon, with sick'ning heart, survey
The perils of the desert way;
The pow'r of sin revives again,
And all their hopes seem false and vain.
The morning sun that shone so bright
Is Shrouded in the gloom of night;
Hopeless the victor's crown to win,
They yield ere they the fight begin.
But Jesus calls them to the field:
"Come, gird on harness, sword and shield;
Stand fast in faith, fight for your King,
My grace shall strength and vict'y bring."
