Workman of God

1

Workman of God, O lose not heart,
But learn what God is like;
And on the darkest battlefield
Thou shalt know where to strike.

2

Thrice blest is he to whom is given
The instinct that can tell
That God is on the field, when He
Is most invisible.

3

Blest, too, is he who can divine
Where truth and justice lie,
And dares to take the side that seems
Wrong to man's blinded eye.

4

Then learn to scorn the praise of men,
And learn to lose with God;
For Jesus won the world through shame,
And beckons thee His road.

5

For right is right, since God is God,
And right the day must win;
To doubt would be disloyalty,
To falter would be sin.
