Our Life Cross.

LIFE hath many heavy burdens, Life hath many weary cares, But we will not faint nor falter, Though the shadow of despair May at times hang darkly ’round us, And we cannot see the way, Still we’ll hope and trust the promise Of a better, brighter day.
Though the way seem long and dreary, Never murmur, never fear, There is One who, never weary, Watcheth o’er his children here; One who will our weak hearts strengthen, If in faith we trust his love; Who will kindly, gently lead us Safely to his home above.
Say not thus, “My lot is hardest;” That thou hast a double share; Thou mayest never know the burdens, Frailer ones than thou must bear; But wherever duty calls us, With a firm and fearless heart Let us labor, striving ever For the nobler, better part.
