Thank God, and take courage,
Though rough is thy way,
Thy Master will give thee
Fresh strength for each day;
Though foes are around thee,
And danger alarms,
They cannot unfasten
The clasp of his arms.
Thank God, and take courage.
With Christ on our side;
We still will march onward.
With Jesus to guide.
Thank God and take courage,
There's much work to do,
But Jesus has promised
Our strength to renew;
Thank God, and take courage,
Each step of the way
Is cheered by his presence,
Our helper and stay.
Thank God, and take courage.
With Christ on our side;
We still will march onward.
With Jesus to guide.
Thank God and take courage,
The warfare is long.
But victory is certain,
For Jesus is strong;
Thank God, and take courage,
We will not retreat,
Who follow Christ's banner
Need fear no defeat.
Thank God, and take courage.
With Christ on our side;
We still will march onward.
With Jesus to guide.
Thank God, and take courage,
Though trials abound,
A refuge forever
Our God will be found;
We'll serve him with gladness.
The world overcome,
Thank God, and take courage,
Our rest is at home.
Thank God, and take courage.
With Christ on our side;
We still will march onward.
With Jesus to guide.
