593. March on, O soul, with strength!

1 March on, O soul, with strength!
Like those strong men of old
Who 'gainst enthroned wrong
Stood confident and bold;
Who thrust in prison or cast to flame,
Still made their glory in the Name.

2 The sons of fathers we
By whom our faith is taught
To fear no ill, to fight.
The holy fight they fought:
Heroic warriors ne'er from Christ
By any lure or guile enticed.

3 March on, O soul, with strength!
As strong the battle rolls!
'Gainst lies and lusts and wrongs,
Let courage rule our soul:
In keenest strife, Lord, may we stand,
Upheld and strengthed by Thy hand.

4 Not long the conflict; soon
The holy way shall cease,
Faith's warfare ended, won
The home of endless peace:
Look up! the victor's crown at length:
March on, O soul, march on, with strength.
