1

Fight the good fight with all thy might!
Christ is thy strength, and Christ thy right;
Lay hold on life, and it shall be
Thy joy and crown eternally.

2

Run the straight race through God's good grace,
Lift up thine eyes, and seek his face;
Life with its way before us lies;
Christ is the path, and Christ the prize.

3

Cast care aside, lean on thy guide;
His boundless mercu will provide;
Trust, and thy trusting soul shall prove
Christ is its life, and Christ its love.

4

Faint not nor fear, his arms are near;
He Changth not, and thou art dear;
Only believe, and thou shalt see
That Christ is all in all to thee.

Translated by Bishop Hassan Dehqani- Tafti in the spring 1945
