If Our Hearts Are Pure

Author: Edith Sandford Tillotson Hymnal: The Excelsior Hymnal #104 (1919) First Line: Like the knight of old, in armor clad Refrain First Line: Bravely we will go Lyrics: 1 Like the knight of old, in armor clad, Forth we go, Many tests and trials, good and bad, We shall know, But we can accomplish all things well, Victory is safe and sure, Triumph and reward will come to him, Whose heart is pure. Refrain: Bravely we will go, Boldly meet the foe, Surely we’ll endure, If our hearts are pure. 2 Nothing can destroy the faith and trust, In each heart, Gladdened by a zeal devout and just, We depart. Danger and discomfort we can bear, Trials we can well endure, Since we know success is bound to come, When hearts are pure. [Refrain] 3 Like the knight of old, we’ll brave the strife, True and strong, Ever we will seek the best in life, Shun the wrong, Evils and temptations lose their pow’r, Vain achievement has no lure, High and lofty purpose thrills us, when Our hearts are pure. [Refrain] Languages: English Tune Title: [Like the knight of old, in armor clad]
