Life is onward use it
With a forward aim :
Toil is heavenly choose it,
And its warfare claim.
Look not to another
To perform your will,
Let not your own brother
Keep your warm hand still.
Life is onward never
Dwell upon the past,
It would hold you ever
In its clutches fast.
Now is your dominion
Wear it as you please,
Bind not the souls pinion
To a bed of ease.
Life is onward try it
Ere the day is lost ;
It hath virtue try it
At whatever cost.
Hope and joy together,
Standing at the goal,
Through life's darkest weather,
Beckon on the soul.
