Tune: Charity
(\'Gracious Spirit, Holy Ghost\')
2 Timothy 2 v.1-5
*********
Be strong in the grace that is
In Christ Jesus, here found this
Sharing of the gospel true
Be good teacher too
Commit teaching to faithful
Ones, so they shall profit all
Others in their turn then share
In the gospel fair
Endure hardship, good soldier
Of Jesus Christ, so confer
With Him, leaving worldly things
Distraction such brings
Single-minded, please the one
Jesus, who is God\'s own Son
Chosen in His army band
Going to each land [in mission]
And be as an athlete, you
Train with the sure end in view
No short cuts, but lawfully
Then the prize yours be
