#617Breast the wave, Christian
Hymn Display
1
Breast the wave, Christian, when it is strongest;
Watch for day, Christian, when night is longest;
Onward and upward still be thine endeavor;
The rest that remaineth endureth forever.
2
Fight the fight, Christian, Jesus is o'er thee;
Run the race, Christian, heaven is before thee;
He who hath promised will falter, no, never;
O trust in the love that endureth forever.
3
Lift the eye, Christian, just as it closeth;
Raise the heart, Christian, ere it reposeth;
Nothing thy soul from the Saviour can sever;
And soon shalt thou see him and praise him forever.
