MY TASK

To trust forever in Gods tender
care.
To cling TO hope always and every
where,
To-livs the life OF iove--to get and
share,
And do the kindly deed:
This IL my task.
To build a character both pure
and strong,
To bravely stand for right, resist
the wrong,
To climb the mountain path ana
sing faiths song.
And go where He may lead:
This Is my task.
To give myself with all my powers
TO God,
TO live the life that's lofty. deep

To walk with COURAGE steadfaSt

And listen for His voice;
This Is my task.
To seek Gods perfect will to do
and know,
To wiser. kinder. better, nobler

And ever to rejoice,

certain practical advantages over free

free play is too individual in it's tenden-

a majority of them, properly exercised
