When the old habit of long Incidence
Calls us TO saunter on its easy ways.
Help us to keep the faith through GER
tain hours
When the hand falters and the courage
fails
And nothing but the CRIME of toll seems
ours.
Help us to keep the faith through GER
tain nights
Of doubt and apprehension when we lose
Sight of that hope which is the light of
lights.
Help us to keep the faith that rose in us
With the first promise that we made to

A wounded world to that goal glorious.
Through toll, through sacrifice, through
very DEATH
Help us to help our souls to keep the
faith.
