Author: John S. B. Monsell Hymnal: Concordia #229 (1918) First Line: Fight the good fight with all thy might Lyrics: 1 Fight the good fight with all thy might,
Christ is thy strength, and Christ thy right;
Lay hold on life, and it shall be
Thy joy and crown eternally.
2 Run the straight race through God's good grace
Lift up thine eyes and seek His face;
Life with its way before us lies,
Christ is the path, and Christ the prize.
3 Cast care aside, lean on thy guide,
His boundless mercy will provide;
Trust, and the trusting soul shall prove
Christ is its life, and Christ its love.
4 Faint not nor fear, for He is near,
He changeth not, and thou art dear;
Only believe, and thou shalt see
That Christ is all in all to thee. Topics: Childhood and Youth Youth; Call and Repentance; Following Christ; Work Languages: English Tune Title: ABENDS
