1. Though deep’ning trials throng your way, Press on, press on, ye Saints of God! Ere long the resurrection day Will spread its life and truth abroad, Will spread its life and truth abroad.

2. Though outward ills await us here, The time, at longest, is not long Ere Jesus Christ will reappear, Surrounded by a glorious throng, Surrounded by a glorious throng.

3. Lift up your hearts in praise to God; Let your rejoicings never cease. Though tribulations rage abroad, Christ says, “In me ye shall have peace.” Christ says, “In me ye shall have peace.”
