Author: Dr. F. W. Faber, 1814-1863 Hymnal: Methodist Hymn and Tune Book #355 (1917) Lyrics: 1 Workman of God, O lose not heart,
But learn what God is like;
And in the darkest battle-field
Thou shalt know where to strike.
2 Thrice blest is he to whom is given
The instinct that can tell
That God is on the field when He
Is most invisible.
3 Then learn to scorn the praise of man,
And learn to lose with God;
For Jesus won the world through shame,
And beckons thee His road.
4 For right is right, since God is God,
And right the day must win;
To doubt would be disloyalty,
To falter would be sin. Topics: Conflict (see also Warfare) Ended; Warfare, the Christian ; The Church and the Kingdom of God Social Service; Social Righteousness; Righteousness Social Languages: English Tune Title: NOX PRAECESSIT
