'Gainst all disaster,
Let him in constancy
Follow the Master.
There's no discouragement
Shall make him once relent
His first avowed intent
To be a pilgrim.
2 Who so beset him round
With dismal stories,
Do but themselves confound,
His strength the more is.
No foes shall stay his might,
Though he with giants fight;
He will make good his right
To be a pilgrim.
3 Since, Lord, thou dost defend
Us with thy Spirit,
We know we at the end
Shall life inherit.
Then fancies flee away!
I'll fear not what men say,
I'll labor night and day
To be a pilgrim.

This is my song of songs,
May Jesus Christ be praised.
God’s holy house of prayer
Hath none that can compare
With 'Jesus Christ be praised.'A-men.

Sing I, when love-possest,
May Jesus Christ be praised.
Whate'er my hands begin,
This blessing breaketh in,
May Jesus Christ be praised.

In all high heaven is known
Than 'Jesus Christ be praised.'
There to the eternal Word
The eternal psalm is heard,
'O Jesus Christ be praised.'
5 Ye nations of mankind,
In this your concord find,
May Jesus Christ be praised.
Let all the earth around
Ring joyous with the sound,
May Jesus Christ be praised.
6 Sing, suns and stars of space,
Sing, ye that see his face,
Sing, 'Jesus Christ be praised.'
God’s whole creation o'er,
For aye and evermore
Shall Jesus Christ be praised.
Amen.

Heroic warriors, ne'er from Christ
By any lure or guile enticed.

As strong the battle rolls!
'Gainst lies and lusts and wrongs,
Let courage rule our souls:
In keenest strife, Lord, may we stand,
Upheld and strengthened by Thy hand.

The holy war shall cease,
Faith's warfare ended, won
The home of endless peace!
Look up! the victor's crown at length!
March on, O soul, march on, with strength!
