55. Be firm and be faithful

1 Be firm and be faithful;
Desert not the right;
The brave become bolder,
The darker the night;
Then up and be doing,
Tho' cowards may fail;
Thy duty pursuing,
dare all, and prevail!

2 If scorn be thy portion,
If hatred and loss,
If stripes or a prison,
Remember the cross!
God watches above thee,
And he will requite;
Stand firm and be faithful,
desert not the right!
