March Along

O do not be discouraged For Jesus is your friend, And if you lack for knowledge

Published in 2 hymnals


Representative Text

1 O do not be discouraged
For Jesus is your friend,
And if you lack for knowledge
He’ll not refuse to lend.

Chorus:
March along, march along,
I’m saved by the blood, I’m saved by the blood;
March along, march along,
I’m saved by the blood of the Lamb.

2 Sometimes I meet with trials,
Temptation on the way,
I cast my care on Jesus
And don’t forget to pray. [Chorus]

3 And if we hold out faithful
A crown of life we’ll wave;
We’ll fight the battle bravely
And shout the victory there. [Chorus]
