Author: Julia H. Johnston Hymnal: Sunday School Voices #77 (1910) First Line: Lift up your hearts, ye pilgrims, ye pilgrims Refrain First Line: Lift up your hearts, take courage Lyrics: 1 Lift up your hearts, ye pilgrims, ye pilgrims,
Along the heav’nward way;
Be strong, and of good courage, good courage,
His royal word obey.
Refrain:
Lift up your hearts, take courage,
Whatever may betide;
The Savior stands above you,
The Lord is on your side!
2 Whatever he may lead you, may lead you,
Go forward undismayed;
Let not your heart be troubled, be troubled,
Nor let it be afraid. [Refrain]
3 Look up, look up, not downward, not downward;
The soul that trusts in him
May see the King of glory, of glory,
Thro’ earthly shadows dim. [Refrain]
4 The lifted heart with gladness, with gladness
Still walks an upward way,
Till God’s own hand swings open, swings open
The shining Gates of Day. [Refrain]
