The Silver Chime ‎#109

109. No. 17 (Faith, Hope, and Charity)--"Ye valiant hearts and true"

1 Ye valiant hearts and true,
Press firmly, gladly on,
The conflict waits for you,
The vict'ry must be won.
Tho' long and fierce the strife,
Tho' strong the foes ye meet,
Fear not for earth's new life
At last your eyes will greet.

2 O tried and faithful hearts,
Content with pain or loss,
Who welcome trial's darts,
And onward bear the cross,
Look up! your strength is there,
Your foes shall surely fall,
Still on your true cross bear,
Its pow'r will crush them all.

3 Brave hearts, by duty bound,
Ye hold the magnet line
Whose touch, the wide world round
Will thrill with love divine.
When he who called us forth,
His ministers to be,
Will claim his throne on earth,
Earth purified and free.
