Though the earth should totter, Though the heav’ns should fall?

Face e’en a disaster With a faith-filled heart,

Knowing naught can harm him Who with Christ will start?

Can you be obedient To the Lord you serve,

Never even flinch, friend, Never even swerve;

Can you then obey Him Without bated breath?

Right into a battle With a mighty foe?

Can you? Then beloved, Christ just waits for you;

Listen for His orders, Glad His will to do;
應當服祂權柄，　　遵行祂命令。
Then when soldiers muster At the set of sun,

And your name is mentioned, Christ will say, Well done.
祂要題起你名，　　並說你“忠心！”
