BRITISH MUSLIM SONG

Halal Mother Goose: Rhymes for Children

PRESS ONWARD!

Press onward in Life’s battle,
     Where moral courage wins;
Your charity shall cover
     A multitude of sins,
If given in all sincerity
     To God who reigns above,
Amid that life so perfect,
     Whose attribute is Love.

Press onward in the conflict,
     Give succour to the weak;
Be kind to all God’s creatures,
     The Heavenly kingdom seek.
So when the devil tempts you
     To do the thing that’s wrong,
Ye shall in well prov’d armour
     Be stronger than the strong.

O, girls and boys of Islam!
     Your talents one or more
God gives you for His service,
     To add unto His store;
If faithful in your efforts,
     And kind to man and beast,
It may be in God’s kingdom
      You will not be the least.

- Fiordelisa
