Than sitting aside,
And dreaming and signing
And waiting the tide.
In LIES earn est battle
They only prevail
who daily march onward
And never say fail.
With an eye ever opon--
A tongue that's not dumb,
And heart that will never
10 Sorrow succumb-
You'll battle and conquer
Though thousands assail:
How strong and how mighty,
Who never say fail!
The spirit Of angels

As higher and higher

Methinks on bright pinions
From Heaven they sail
To cheer and encourage
Who never say fail.
Ahead then keep pushing,
And elbow your way,

And asses tina. bra y:
All obstacles vanish,
All enemies quail,
In the might Of their wisdom
Who never say fail.
In LIES rosy morning,
In manhood's firm pride,
Let this be the motto
Your footsteps to guide:
In storm and in sunshine,
Whatever assail,
Wen onward and conquer,
And never say fail.
