The New Sabbath School Hosanna ‎#46

46. Oh, do not be discouraged

1 Oh, do not be discouraged,
For Jesus is your friend,
Oh, do not be discouraged,
For Jesus is your friend.

Chorus:
I am glad I'm in this army,
Yes, I'm glad I'm in this army,
Yes, I'm glad I'm in this army,
And I'll battle for the school.
He will give you grace to conquer,
He will give you grace to conquer,
And keep you to the end.

2 Fight on, ye little soldiers,
The battle you shall win,
For the Saviour is your Captain,
And he hath vanquish'd sin. [Chorus]

3 And when the conflict's over,
Before him you shall stand;
You shall sing his praise for ever,
In Canaan's happy land. [Chorus]
