He who would valiant be
Author: John Bunyan (1628-1688) Hymnal: The Hymnal #276b (1950) Meter: 6.5.6.5.6.6.6.5 Topics: The Life in Christ Loyalty and Courage; Courage and Loyalty; Loyalty and Courage Lyrics: 1 He who would valiant be
'Gainst all disaster,
Let him in constancy
Follow the Master.
There's no discouragement
Shall make him once relent
His first avowed intent
To be a pilgrim.
2 Who so beset him round
With dismal stories
Do but themselves confound—
His strength the more is.
No foes shall stay his might;
Though he with giants fight,
He will make good his right
To be a pilgrim.
3 Since, Lord, Thou dost defend
Us with Thy Spirit,
We know we at the end
Shall life inherit.
Then fancies flee away!
I'll fear not what men say,
I'll labor night and day
To be a pilgrim.
Amen. Languages: English Tune Title: ST. DUNSTAN'S

Like one who would not bring less than his best.

To shield the right,
And wield Thy sword of truth
With all my might,
That, in the warfare I must wage for Thee,
More than a victor I may ever be. ·

And when Thy last call comes serene and clear,
Calm may my answer be, "Lord, I am here."

All nature sings, and round me rings
The music of the spheres.

Of rocks and trees, of skies and seas;
His hand the wonders wrought.

The birds their carols raise,
The morning light, the lily white,
Declare their Maker's praise.
This is my Father's world:
He shines in all that's fair;
In the rustling grass I hear Him pass,
He speaks to me everywhere.
3 This is my Father's world:
O let me ne'er forget
That though the wrong seems oft so strong,
God is the Ruler yet.
This is my Father's world:
The battle is not done;
Jesus who died shall be satisfied,
And earth and heaven be one.
