Shsll attain lie highest goal
Opens there no smoother pathway
To the upward struggling soul
No--hke seed that through thick darkness
Gro2es its way above the sod,
So this soul of mine must ever
Struggle through the dark to God
Light uutempered pales the tl,ssom,
Suns uncloudad blight the grain
So the love that's winged with wiidom
Calls His clouds and gives them rain.
I, plant 10 Gods great garden,
Grain within His guarded field,

Raiu to make me thrive and yield2
In the day the great earth wearies,
Sickeus meath the burning cum
In the night she rallies nobly,
Till her strength is all re won.
Dews fresh dropt from natures chalice,
Cool and quicken all her powers.
Fit for another morrow's
Struggle through the sultry hours.
In the light my soul grows sickly,
Sluggish, fsint-until, at length,
In the dark how strong 1t struggles,
Battling for its bartered strength
Tears, like dews, refresh and hallow
All its powers for noble strife
FIT and nerve II tor another
Upward effort into Life.
Life 10 toil-he lives, he only,
Who, amid his daily cares,
Bees a mighty end upsprisging,
Like choice wheat among the tares.
He who patience CLEANS from trial,
Strength from struggle, hope from pain,
He twice lives-on earth--in heaven
he who lives once lives again.
