Christian, rise and act thy creed; Let thy prayer be in thy deed; Seek the right, perform the true, Raise thy works and life anew.
Hearts around thee sink with care; Thou canst help their load to bear; Thou canst bring inspiring light, Arm their faltering wills to fight.
Let thine aims be hope and joy, And thy worship God’s employ; Give Him thanks in humble zeal, Learning all His will to feel.
Come, then law divine, and reign; Freest faith assailed in vain, Perfect love bereft of fear, Born in heaven and radiant here. |
