Oft in danger, oft in woe

(7.7.7.7)
1.

Oft in danger, oft in woe,
onward, Christians, onward go;
bear the toil, maintain the strife,
strengthened with the bread of life.

2.

Onward through the desert night,
keeping faith and vision bright;
face the challenge of the hour
trusting in your Saviour's power?

3.

Let not sorrow dim your eye,
soon shall ev'ry tear be dry:
let not fears your course impede,
great your strength if great your need

4.

Let your drooping hearts be glad;
march in faith and honour clad;
march, nor think the journey long,
march to hope's eternal song.

5.

Onward then, undaunted, move;
more than faithful God will prove;
though the raging waters flow,
Christian pilgrims, onward go.

This hymn is in the public domain.
