Never Mind, Go On!

lyricist: Richard Slater, 1886
Composer: Herbert Booth

In the fight

say

does your heart grow wea­ry?

Do you find your path is rough and thor­ny?

And above the sky is dark and stor­my?

Never mind

go on!

Lay aside all fear

and on­ward press­ing

Bravely fight

and God will give His bless­ing;

Though the war at times may prove dis­tress­ing

Never mind

go on!

When the road we tread is rough

Let us bear in mind

in our Sav­ior strength enough

We may al­ways find; though the fight­ing may be tough

Let our mot­to be: Go on

go on to vic­to­ry!

Faithful be

de­lay­ing not to fol­low

Where Christ leads

though it may be through sor­row;

If the strife should fierc­er grow to­mor­row

Never mind

go on!

Cheerful be

it will your bur­dens light­en

One glad heart will al­ways oth­ers bright­en;

Though the strife the cow­ard’s soul may fright­en

Never mind

go on!

When down­heart­ed

look away to Je­sus

Who for you did shed His blood most pre­cious;

Let us say

though all the world should hate us;

Never mind

go on!

Do your best in fight­ing for your Sav­ior

For His sake fear not to lose men’s fa­vor;

If be­side you should a com­rade wa­ver

Never mind

go on!
