Dost fear to lose thy way? Take cour-

Learn thou to walk by faith and not
by sight;
Thy step will guided be and guided

Hard" Well, what of that?
Didst fancy life one long summer holi-

With lessons none to learn and nought

Go, get thee to thy task; conquer or

Though human help be far, thy God is

And he will guide thee, light thee
