Representative Text

1 With the eyes of our faith on the Hill of the Lord,
And our strength in the arm of his might;
With the buckler and shield he commands us to wear,
Let us boldly stand up for the right.

Chorus:
Pressing onward, Pressing onward,
With the daystar of Hope beaming bright,
Pressing on, ever on, Pressing on, ever on,
Let us boldly stand up for the right.

2 Let us learn of our Saviour, the lowly and meek,
For his yoke and his burden are light--
O'er the conflict of life We shall triumph at last,
If we boldly stand up for the right. [Chorus]

3 There's a morn that will dawn on the faithful and just,
And dispel ev'ry shadow of night;
There's a crown for the cross that is borne to the end,--
Let us boldly stand up for the right. [Chorus]
