جاهد جهادا حسنا

Representative Text

1 جاهد جهاداً حسناً
فالربُّ فيه قوتُكْ
وبالمسيحِ فاعتصِمْ
فمنهُ دوماً نُصرتُكْ

2 إخدم وقوِّمِ الخَطا
واطلُب رضا وجه الإلهْ
بالخير بشِّرْ والتُّقى
تنلْ سعادة الحياهْ

3 ألقِ الهموم واتكلْ
على يسوع المُعتني
فالنفسُ إن لاذت بهِ
أمناً سلاماً تجتني

4 أنت عزيزٌ لا تخفْ
يدُ المسيحِ حولكا
آمن وثِق تجد بهِ
الكلَّ في الكل لكا
