Onward, Christian, Though The Region
Where Thou Art Be Drear And Lone,
God Hath Set A Guardian Legion
Very Near Thee Press Thou On!

Listen, Christian, Their Hosanna
Rolleth O’er Thee “God Is Love,”
Write Upon Thy Red-Cross Banner,
“Upward Ever Heaven’s Above.”

By The Thorn-Road, And None Other,
Is The Mount Of Vision Won;
Tread It Without Shrinking, Brother!
Jesus Trod It Press Thou On!

By Thy Trustful, Calm Endeavor,
Guiding, Cheering, Like The Sun,
Earth-Bound Hearts Thou Shalt Deliver;
O, For Their Sake, Press Thou On!

Be This World The Wiser, Stronger,
For Thy Life Of Pain And Peace;
While It Needs Thee, O No Longer
Pray Thou For Thy Quick Release:

Pray Thou, Christian, Daily, Rather,
That Thou Be A Faithful Son;
By The Prayer Of Jesus “Father,
Not My Will, But Thine, Be Done!”
