8822. Go On!

1 Go on, ye soldiers of the cross,
With courage bold and daring,
Go on by faith in Jesus’ name,
His royal standard bearing.

Refrain:
Go on, go on, go on, go on,
Proclaim the Gospel story!
From step to step,
From strength to strength,
Go on from grace to glory.

2 Though dangers lie on every side,
And coming storms alarm us,
Yet, safe within the Rifted Rock,
No earthly power can harm us. [Refrain]

3 Go on, go on, and trust in Him
Whose eye is beaming o’er us,
Who gives His holy angels charge
To guard the way before us. [Refrain]

4 Go on, go on with this our aim,
And this our firm endeavor,
To gain at last the sunny shore
And praise our Lord forever. [Refrain]
