"Bebolo Tl come qutcfel $; bolo tbat fast wbicb tbon bast, tbat no man take tbs crown." REVELATION 3, 11. Hold fast thy vows, bravely to fight Christ's tourney, To make no truce with falsehood nor with wrong, To bear His colours right through all thy journey, However hard the path, however long. Hold fast thy prayers, to turn to Him for guiding, To give Him praise and thanks for weal or woe, To claim His strength, always with thee abiding. Whether through joy or sorrow thou shalt go. Hold fast thy hope; ill beasts may near be lurking, But let them lurk so long as He abides; Christ has no use for cowardice or shirking; If He gives sorrow He gives joy besides. Hold fast to Christ, Who never fails His brother; Shame to be shamed at all His love for thee; Follow His steps, nor imitate another; His ways are ours and eve'rmor© shall be. — A. N. (Napier).
