We have no reason to ever fear.
We are never alone with Jesus,
For He promised He’d always be near.
No matter where He may lead us,
No matter what problem we face,
No matter how daring the mission-
He provides His marvelous grace.

ii. Be strong!
We are not here to play, to dream, to drift.
We have hard work to do and loads to lift.
Shun not the struggle,
face it: ’tis God’s gift.
Be strong!
Say not the days are evil. Who’s to blame?
And fold the hands and acquiesce, O shame!
Stand up, speak out
and bravely, in God’s

It is composed of people just like me.
It will be friendly if I am.
It will do a great work if I work.
It will make generous gifts to many causes if I am generous.
It will bring others into its fellowship if I bring them.
Its seats will be filled if I fill them.

Poem: Annie Johnson Flint wrote:
This weighty burden thou dost bear,
This heavy cross,
It is a gift the Lord bestows,
And not a loss;
It is a trust that He commits
Unto thy care,
A precious lesson He has deigned
With thee to share.
Rejoice that He so honors thee
And so esteems
Of highest worth;
