R4370-108 Poem: Be Strong!

::R4370 : page 108::

“Be strong!
We are not here to play, to dream, to drift;
We have hard work to do and loads to life;
Shun not the struggle—face it; ’tis God’s gift.

“Be strong!
It matters not how deep entrenched the wrong;
How hard the battle goes, the day how long;
Faint not—fight on! Tomorrow comes the song.”
