61. With a Persevering Faith

1 O remember there’s a work to be done;
Are you ready for the race? will you run?
Are you striving for the crown to be won,
With a persevering faith and love?

Refrain:
Will you stand for truth, and battle for the right?
Will you firmly stand and keep your armor bright?
Then rejoice with vigor new,
There’s a crown of life for you,
In the mansions of glory above.

2 Are you ready for the cross? can you way
You are ready for the toils of the way?
Are you trusting in the Lord? do you pray
With a persevering faith and love? [Refrain]

3 Are you giving up the ways of the world?
Are you laying every weight now aside?
Are you clinging to the arm of your guide
With a persevering faith and love? [Refrain]
