Author: Edith Sanford Tillotson Hymnal: The Kingdom of Praise #17 (1920) First Line: To stand within that noble line Refrain First Line: Then keep the faith, resolve to win Lyrics: 1 To stand within that noble line,
That conquer sin with strength divine,
What greater fame could man desire?
What higher aim his heart inspire?
Refrain:
Then keep the faith, resolve to win,
To overcome invading sin,
Thy Captain, Christ, depends on thee,
To carry His flag to victory.
2 To be enrolled with those who fight,
With courage bold for God and right,
What fit applause can mortals bring,
To such a cause, to such a King? [Refrain]
3 All they who dare, who win the strife,
Shall surely wear the crown of life,
Their very names in heav’n are known,
For Christ proclaims them from His throne. [Refrain] Tune Title: [To stand within that noble line]
Keep the faith
