Representative Text

1 Young soldiers gird your armor on,
And boldly meet the foe;
There's blessings at the mercy seat,
Keep praying as you go.

Chorus:
Keep praying, ever praying,
Thro' all your way below;
Keep praying, ever praying,
Keep praying as you go.

2 Come burdened souls with all your guilt,
And all your weight of woe;
Let faith direct and hope inspire,
Keep praying as you go. [Chorus]

3 Oh! cast your sins at Jesus, feet,
While here on earth below;
Receive the promise He has giv'n,
Keep praying as you go. [Chorus]

4 And when you've filled the mission giv'n,
The Savior will bestow;
The blessings He has promised you,
While praying as you go. [Chorus]

5 The Savior with the Father pleads,
And this I surely know;
These blessings will be given you,
If praying as you go. [Chorus]
