Count yourselves worthy

To suffer loss

Brought down held back

Marvel not that the world hates you

If you were of it it would hold you high

But as it hated Christ it hates those that follow him

Not withholding pride not withstanding right

Unashamed we rise to the name of Christ

Keep yourselves pure for the renewing of your minds

To be a light in deed and word

For this is life for this is love

Abiding in the will of the Father

Count the cost suffering all lost

In the name of Christ

Take up your cross

Looking to that which is unseen to our eternal hope

Not moved by the things of this world

Our redemption draws near the end is in sight

Hold true Christian brethren to these promises of life
