The Voice of Praise ‎#639

639. Workman of God, oh, lose not heart

1 Workman of God, oh, lose not heart,
But learn what God is like;
And in the darkest battle-field
Thou shalt know where to strike.

2 For blest is he who can divine
Where real right doth lie,
And dares to take the side that seems
Wrong to man's blindfold eye.

3 Oh, learn to scorn the praise of men;
Oh, learn to lose with God;
For Jesus won the world through shame,
And beckons thee this road.

4 For right is right, since God is God;
And right the day must win;
To doubt will be disloyalty
To falter would be sin.
