SOLDIER of Christ! Oh, lose not heart

But learn what God is like;

And in the darkest battlefield

Thou shalt know where to strike.

2

Oh, blest is he to whom is given

The instinct that can tell

That God is on the field, when He

Is most invisible!

3

And blest is he who can divine

Where real right doth lie,

And dares to take the side that seems

Wrong to man’s blindfold eye!

4

Oh, learn to scorn the praise of men!

Oh, learn to lose with God!

For Jesus won the world through shame,

And beckons thee His road.

5

And right is right, since God is God,

And right the day must win;

To doubt would be disloyalty,

To falter would be sin!
