Grant us grace to persevere;
Leader of the hosts of God,
May we tread where Thou has trod!
2  Once for Thee, the Crucified,
Many a faithful martyr died,
How can we, Thy children show
All our love for all Thy woe?
3  They for Thee bore axe and wheel,
Fire, and beasts, and piercing steel:
Like them, may we suffer shame,
Pain or loss for Thy dear Name.
4  Bearing calmly for our Lord
Thoughtless jest or spiteful word;
Curbing angry speech and tear,
Strong in Thee to persevere.
5  Persevere, Thy yoke is light;
Persevere, Thy crown is bright;
Persevere, and we shall sing
In the palace of our King!
AMEN. Languages: English Tune Title: BENEDICT 
			
	King of Glory! Saviour dear!
