Be Firm and Be Faithful

lyricist: Christian Melodist, 1849
Composer: John Roberts, 1839

Be firm and be faith­ful; de­sert not the right;

The brave become bold­er the dark­er the night.

Then up and be do­ing

though cow­ards may fail;

Thy du­ty pur­su­ing

dare all and pre­vail.

If scorn be thy por­tion

if hat­red and loss

If stripes or a pri­son

re­mem­ber the cross.

God watch­es above thee

and He will re­quite;

Forsake those that love thee

but nev­er the right.
