He Who Would Valiant Be Against All Disaster, Let Him In Constancy Follow The Master.

 

 

 

 

1.       He who would valiant be against all disaster,

Let him in constancy follow the Master.

There’s no discouragement

Shall make him once relent

His first avowed intent to be a pilgrim.

 

 

 

 

2.      Who so beset him round with 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 right to be a pilgrim.

 

 

 

3.      Since, Lord, thou dost defend,

Us with thy Spirit,

We know we at the end shall life inherit.

Then fancies flee away!

I’ll fear not what men say,

I’ll labour night and day to be a pilgrim.
