Lo the hosts of evil round us
Scorn Thy Christ assail His ways;

Free our hearts to faith and praise.

Cure Thy children s warring madness
Bend our pride to Thy control;

Lest we miss Thy kingdom s goal.

Set our feet on lofty places
Gird our lives that they may be
Armored with all Christ like graces
In the fight to set all free.
Grant us wisdom grant us courage
That we fail not man nor Thee.
