106. O, do not be discouraged

1 O, do not be discouraged.
For Jesus is your Friend,
O, do not be discouraged,
For Jesus is your Friend,
He will give you grace to conquer.
He will give you grace to conquer.
And keep you to the end.

Chorus:
I am glad I'm in this army,
Yes, I'm glad I'm in this army.
And I'll battle for the school.
He will give you grace to conquer,
He will give you grace to conquer.
And keep you to the end.

2 Fight on, ye little soldiers,
The battle you shall win,
Fight on, ye little soldiers,
The battle you shall win.
For the Saviour is your Captain.
For the Saviour is your Captain.
And he has vanquished sin.

[Chorus]
I am glad I'm in this army,
Yes, I'm glad I'm in this army.
And I'll battle for the school.
For the Saviour is your Captain,
For the Saviour is your Captain,
And he has vanquished sin.

3 And when the conflict's over,
Before him you shall stand;
And when the conflict's over,
Before him you shall stand.
You shall sing his praise for ever,
You shall sing his praise for ever,
In Canaan's happy land. [Chorus]
