Author: George Heath Hymnal: Timeless Truths #233 Meter: 6.6.8.6 Lyrics: 1 My soul, be on thy guard,
Ten thousand foes arise,
And hosts of sin are pressing hard
To draw thee from the skies.
2 Oh, watch, and fight, and pray,
The battle ne’er give o’er,
Renew it boldly every day,
And help divine implore.
3 Ne’er think the vict’ry won,
Nor once at ease sit down;
Thine arduous work will not be done
Till thou hast got the crown.
4 Fight on, my soul, till death
Shall bring thee to thy God;
He’ll take thee at thy parting breath
Up to His blest abode. Topics: Exhortation Scripture: 1 Peter 5:8 Tune Title: LABAN
My Soul, Be on Thy Guard
