THE SONG OF LIFE!
Sing not of Rest
For heart, or brain, or the strong soul's emotion
Beneath the shadow of Eternal peace!
There is no rest in Nature or surcease
Of Law, and Labour, in unceasing motion.
Sing not of Rest!
For heart, or brain, or the strong soul's emotion
Beneath the shadow of Eternal peace!
There is no rest in Nature or surcease
Of Law, and Labour, in unceasing motion.
Sing not of Rest!
Sing not of Peace
On earth, or in the realms beyond our dreaming!
Progress and Retrogression all things draw
Within the edict of Eternal Law.
Search for the Real which lies beneath the Seeming.
Sing not of Peace!

Sing not of Peace!
Sing thou of Toil,
Of toil that moulds to-day the larger morrow!
Move with stout heart on Life's great battle field
And wear the motto "Progress" on thy shield.
All that is best is won through toil and sorrow.
Sing thou of Toil!
Of toil that moulds to-day the larger morrow!
Move with stout heart on Life's great battle field
And wear the motto "Progress" on thy shield.
All that is best is won through toil and sorrow.
Sing thou of Toil!
