Author Unknown (383/413) -- Hymns and Spiritual Songs

Author Unknown FIGHT the good fight of faith! Thy God is near thee; He standeth by thy side, Always to cheer thee. What though thy foes may come Thicker and faster? Jesus thy Captain is, Thy gracious Master. 2 Valiantly stand thy ground A little longer; Though strong thy foes appear, Thy Lord is stronger, Trust Him in every hour, He’ll ne’er forsake thee; Up to His heavenly home Surely He’ll take thee. 3 There thou shalt praise His name; Part from Him never; There, in eternal peace, Happy forever, Look back on battles fought, Conflicts all over, Clothed in thy Saviour’s light, Blest in His favor.
