THE FIGHT FOR FAITH, by JOHN SAMUEL BEWLEY MONSELL Poet's Biography First Line: Fight the good fight with all thy might Last Line: That christ is all in all to thee. | |||
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. Run the straight race through God's good grace; Lift up thine eyes, and seek His face; Life with its way before us lies; Christ is the path and Christ the prize. Cast care aside, upon thy Guide Lean, and His mercy will provide; Lean, and the trusting soul shall prove Christ is its life and Christ its love. 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. | Discover our Poem Explanations and Poet Analyses!Other Poems of Interest...LITANY by JOHN SAMUEL BEWLEY MONSELL RETROSPECTION by GEORGIA DOUGLAS JOHNSON TEARS IN SLEEP by LOUISE BOGAN DOROTHY'S DOWER by PHOEBE CARY THE RHODORA: ON BEING ASKED, WHENCE IS THE FLOWER? by RALPH WALDO EMERSON |
