297. We Will Stand the Storm

1 Am I a soldier of the Cross (of the Cross),
Am I a soldier of the Cross (or the Cross),
Am I a soldier of the Cross,
A follow'r of the Lamb?
And shall I fear to own His cause (to own His cause),
And shall I fear to own His cause (to own His cause).
And shall I fear to own His cause,
Or blush to speak His name?

Refrain
We will stand the storm.
We will anchor by and by, by and by.
We will stand the storm.
We will anchor by and by.

2 Are there no foes for me to face (for me to face),
Are there no foes for me to face (for me to face),
Are there no foes for me to face,
Must I not stem the flood?
Is this vile world a friend to grace (a friend to grace),
Is this vile world a friend to grace (a friend to grace),
Is this vile world a friend to grace,
To help me on to God? Refrain

3 Sure I must fight if I would reign (if I would reign),
Sure I must fight if I would reign (if I would reign),
Sure I must fight if I would reign,
Increase my courage , Lord!
I'll bear the toil, endure the pain (endure the pain),
I'll bear the toil, endure the pain (endure the pain),
I'll bear the toil, endure the pain,
Supported by Thy Word. Refrain
