#545Pilgrims, On!

Pilgrims and strangers here below, walk pressing on, and forward bound, Pilgrims and strangers here below, press on to your eternal home; A resting place for weary souls, a home where partings are no more, Citizens of the world above, lift up your heads, your joys explore.

Gird up your loins, and onward press; the prize before you gleaming bright, Gird up your loins, and onward press; soon it will dawn, Sweet Gospel light; Let not your faith and courage fail, Soon the redeemed shall triumph stand, Let not your faith and courage fail, Soon you shall reach the promised land.

Pilgrims and strangers here below, to God's true worship be, of right, Pilgrims and strangers here below, what if you sin, in faith to live. Wild the tempests about you be, still by faith hold fast to God, Wild the tempests about you be, still in the land of promise trod.

Pilgrims and strangers here below, heed not the world's alluring voice, Pilgrims and strangers here below, make heaven your eternal choice; Watch and be ready, faithful ones, With watchfulness the Holy Spirit, Watch and be ready, faithful ones, Who worketh all for the glory.
