Know my soul, thy full salvation,
Rise o�er sin, and fear, and care;
Joy to find in every station
Something still to do or bear.
Think what Spirit dwells within thee;
Think what Father�s smiles are thine;
Think what Jesus did to win thee:
Child of heaven, canst thou repine?
God will give thee grace and glory;
Fight thy way, and get thy crown;
Canaan�s land lies just before thee�
There you�ll lay your armour down.
Soon you�ll close your earthly mission,
Soon you�ll pass your pilgrim days;
Hope shall change to glad fruition�
Faith to sight, and prayer to praise.
---Alternative verses---
Haste thee not from grace and glory;�
Armed by faith, and winged by prayer;�
Heaven's eternal day before thee��
God's own hand shall guide thee there.�
Soon you�ll close thine earthly mission,�
Soon you�ll pass thy pilgrim days;�
Hope shall change to glad fruition��
Faith to sight, and prayer to praise.�
