1
YE who rose to meet the Lord–
Ventured on his faithful word,
Faint not now, for your reward
Will be quickly given.
Faint not! Always watch and pray,
Jesus will no more delay,
Soon it will be dawn of day–
Day-Star beams from heaven.
2
Would ye to the end endure?
Keep the wedding garments pure
Claim ye still the promise sure
Faithful is the Lord!
Let your lamps be burning bright,
In God's word is beaming light,
Live by faith and not by sight–
Crowns are your reward.
3
Mid the darts of angry foe,
Onward, fearless, onward go,
The good soldier's courage show.
On, to victory!
"Let thine eyes be turned to me,"
Jesus says, "I'll rescue thee,
Overcome, and faithful be,
Thou shall; glory see!"
4
Tones of thunder through the sky–
Angel voices sounding high,
Echo still the mighty cry,
Jesus, quickly come!
Quickly he'll return again,
With his saints will come to reign,
While all heaven will shout "Amen,
Welcome to thy throne!"
