THE STRUGGLER
There's a way to go, but 'tis hard we know,
'Tis the path that the Saviour trod;
There's a hill to climb, but in God's good time,
We will reach the top-most sod.

There's a struggle to win in this world of sin,
'Tis Temptation's well-worn way:
There's a hope to gain in the Father's name,
That will last every coming day.

Lifted by faith, tho the trials surround,
Traveling thro' troubles that come:
When with the dear Lord in Heaven we re found,
Let us hear the glad tidings. "Well done!"
