Author: R. F. Cottrell Hymnal: The Seventh-Day Adventist Hymn and Tune Book #865 (1886) Lyrics: 1 O lift up your heads! your redemption draws near!
Let nothing discourage, or cause you to fear;
Our Saviour is faithful, his promise is sure
To all who hear trials, hold fast, and endure.
2 Well may you have courage, your cause is the Lord's,
Attested by signs, and with Scripture accords;
And though all the powers of the dragon assail,
The truth, being mighty, will surely prevail.
3 Hold fast that rich treasure, nor e'er lay it down;
Endure to the end and let none take thy crown;
The spirits of darkness will seek to devour,
But Jesus and angels excel them in power.
4 Rich promise to all who shall now overcome!
To be a firm pillar in God's sacred dome,
Inscribed with his name, and the Son of his love,
And that of the city which comes from above. Topics: Waiting for Christ Closing Work Tune Title: GOSHEN
