155 He Who Would Valiant Be

He who would valiant be‘Gainst all disasterLet him in constancyFollow the MasterThere’s no discouragementShall make him once relentHis first avowed intentTo be a pilgrim. Who so beset him roundWith dismal stories,Do but themselves confound —His strength the more is.No foes shall stay his might,Though he with giants fight:He will make good his rightTo be a pilgrim. Since, Lord, Thou doest defendUs with Thy Spirit,We know we at the endShall life inherit.Then fancies flee away!I’ll fear not what men say,I’ll labor night and dayTo be a pilgrim.
