Hymnal: The Southern Harmony, and Musical Companion (New ed. thoroughly rev. and much enl.) #81 (1854) Meter: 12.11 Hymnal Title: The Southern Harmony, and Musical Companion (New ed. thoroughly rev. and much enl.) Lyrics:
1.
Come, Christians, be valiant, our Jesus is near us,
We'll conquer the powers of darkness and sin;
Through grace and the Spirit we'll glory inherit,
And peace, like a river, give comfort within.
2.
We have trials and cares, and hardships and losses,
But heaven will pay us for all that we bear;
We'll soon end in pleasures and glory for ever,
And bright crowns of glory for ever we'll wear.
3.
Young converts, be humble, the prospect is blooming,
The wings of kind angels around you are spread;
While some are oppressed with sin and are mourning,
The spirits of joy upon you is shed.
4.
Live near to our Captain, and always obey him,
This world, flesh, and Satan must all be denied;
Both care and diligence, and prayer without ceasing,
Will safe land young converts to riches on high.
5.
O mourners, God bless you, don't faint in the spirit,
Believe, and the Spirit our pardon he'll give;
He's now interceding and pleading his merit,
Give up, and your souls he will quickly receive.
6.
If truly a mourner, he's promised you comfort,
His good promises stand in his sacred word;
O hearken and hear them, all glory, all glory,
The mourners are filled with the presence of God.
7.
O sinners, my bowels do move with desire;
Why stand you gazing on the works of the Lord?
O fly from the flames of devouring fire,
And wash your pollution in Jesus's blood.
8.
Brethren, in sweet gales we are all breezing,
My soul feels the mighty, the heavenly flame;
I'm now on my journey, my faith is increasing,
All glory and praise to God and the Lamb.

Come, Christians, be valiant, our Jesus is near us
Come, all ye young people of every relation,
Hymnal: The Southern Harmony, and Musical Companion (New ed. thoroughly rev. and much enl.) #81b (1854) Meter: 12.11 Hymnal Title: The Southern Harmony, and Musical Companion (New ed. thoroughly rev. and much enl.) Lyrics:
1.
Come, all ye young people of every relation,
Come listen awhile, and to you I will tell
How I was first called to seek for salvation,
Redemption in Jesus who saved me from hell.
2.
I was not yet sixteen when Jesus first called me,
To think of my soul, and the state I was in;
I saw myself standing a distance from Jesus,
Between me and him was a mountain of sin.
3.
The devil perceived that I was convinced,
He strove to persuade me that I was too young,
That I would get weary before my ascension,
And wish that I had not so early begun.
4.
Sometimes he'd persuade me that Jesus was partial,
When he was a setting of poor sinners free,
That I was forsaken, and quite reprobated,
And there was no mercy at all for poor me.
5.
But glory to Jesus, his love's not confined
To princes, nor men of a nobler degree;
His love it flows bounteous to all human creatures,
He died for poor sinners, when nailed to the tree.
6.
And when I was groaning in sad lamentation,
My soul overwhelmed in sorrow and in sin,
He drew near me in mercy, and looked on me in pity,
He pardoned my sins, and he gave me relief.
7.
And now I've found favor in Jesus my Savior,
And all his commandments I'm bound to obey;
I trust he will keep me from all Satan's power,
Till he shall think proper to call me away.
8.
So farewell, young people, if I can't persuade you
To leave off your follies and go with a friend,
I'll follow my Savior, in whom I've found favor
My days to his glory I'm bound for to spend.
