Representative Text

1 We have a dauntless Captain
Who knows of no defeat;
He leads to vict’ry certain,
When in the battle’s heat;
He is the strong Defender,
He scatters ev’ry foe;
And to Him those surrender
Who come His pow’r to know.

Refrain:
Then we’ll take courage,
Then we’ll take courage,
Then we’ll take courage
And we’ll conquer till He comes.

2 He guides His children onward,
He strengthens them each day;
He shows Himself from heaven,
The Life, the Truth, the Way;
He is their one safe Refuge
In life’s tempestuous sea;
He shelters from the deluge
Of sin and misery. [Refrain]

3 He waits to be the Saviour
Of all who here below
Will take His offered favor,
And full salvation know;
Accept from this Redeemer
An everlasting home;
You’ll live with Him forever,
And never from Him roam. [Refrain]
