Fight the good fight with all thy might

by John S. B. Monsell (1811–1875)

Representative text

As printed in The Seventh-day Adventist Hymnal (1985), no. 613.

Verse 1

Fight the good fight with all thy might; Christ is thy strength, and Christ thy right; Lay hold on life and it shall be Thy joy and crown eternally.

Verse 2

Run the straight race through God’s good grace; Lift up thine eyes, and seek His face. Life with its path before us lies; Christ is the way, and Christ the prize.

Verse 3

Cast care aside, lean on thy guide, His boundless mercy will provide; Trust, and the trusting soul shall prove Christ is its life, and Christ its love.

Verse 4

Faint not, nor fear, His arms are near; He changeth not, and thou art dear. Only believe, and thou shalt see That Christ is all in all to thee.
