Hymns 5 - Go Forth to Life, O Child of Earth текст песни

Go forth to life, O child of earth!
Still mindful of thy heav???nly birth;
Thou art not here for ease, or sin,
But manhood???s noble crown to win.

Tho??? passion???s fires are in thy soul,
Thy spirit can their flames control;
Tho??? tempters strong beset thy way,
Thy spirit is more strong than they.

Go on from innocence of youth
To manly purity and truth;
God???s angels still are near to save,
And God Himself doth help the brave.

Then forth to life, O child of earth!
Be worthy of thy heav???nly birth!
For noble service thou art here;
Thy brothers help, thy God revere!
