Go on, you pilgrims, while below,

In the sure path of peace,

Determined nothing else to know

But Jesus and his grace.

2 Observe your leader, follow him;

He through this world has been

Often reviled; but like a lamb

Did ne’er revile again.

3 O! take the pattern he has given,

And love your enemies;

And learn the only way to heaven

Through self-denial lies.

4 Remember, you must watch and pray

While journeying on the road,

Lest you should fall out by the way,

And wound the cause of God.

5 Go on rejoicing night and day;

Your crown is yet before,

Defy the trials of the way,

The storm will soon be o’er.

6 Soon we shall reach the promised land,

With all the ransomed race,

And join with all the glorious band,

To sing redeeming grace.
