We are not here to play, to dream, to drift; We have hard work to do, and loads of lift; Shun not the struggle–“tis God’s gift. BE STRONG!

"We are not here to play, to dream, to drift; We have hard work to do, and loads of lift; Shun not the struggle–“tis God’s gift BE STRONG! Say not, “The days are evil. Who’s to blame?” And fold the hands of acquiesce–oh shame! Stand up, speak out, and bravely, in God’s name. 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."
