Be strong to hope, oh heart !
Though day is bright,
The stars can only shine
In the dark night.
Be strong, oh heart of mine,
Look towards the light !
Be strong to bear, oh heart !
Nothing is vain :
Strive not, for life is care,
And God sends pain :
Heaven is above, and there
Rest will remain !
Be strong to love, oh heart !
Love knows not wrong ;
Didst thou love creatures even
Life were not long ;
Didst thou love God in heaven,
Thou wouldst be strong !
