When Trouble frowns upon our way And still we bravely overcome, The griefs besieging us each day; Desirous as best we may, To bear the duties burdensome. When clouds obscure the sunny sky, When Sorrow surges o’er the heart; When Pain’s dread presence hovers nigh, Faith must triumph then, or die, She conquers when we do our part! The slowest feet were meant to climb; The humblest life can honor God. The present is the testing time Forward Soul to heights sublime! Thy work is here and not abroad. |
