Be strong!
We are not here to play,
to dream, to drift;
We have hard work to do
and loads to lift;
Shun not the struggle,
face it, ’tis God’s gift.
Be strong, be strong, be strong!
Be strong!
Say not the days are evil—
who’s to blame?
And fold the hands
and acquiesce—O shame!
Stand up, speak out,
and bravely, in God’s Name.
Be strong, be strong, be strong!
Be strong!
It matters not how deep
entrenched the wrong,
How hard the battle goes,
the day, how long;
Faint not, fight on!
Tomorrow comes the song.
Be strong, be strong, be strong!
