[96 words]
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!
Say not, “The days are evil.
Who’s to blame?”
And fold the hands and acquiesce —
oh shame!
Stand up, speak out, and bravely,
in God’s name.
Be strong!
It matters not how deep intrenched
the wrong,
How hard the battle goes,
the day how long;
Faint not — fight on! Tomorrow
comes the song.
