My Life.

Two paths I've trodden all my day; One is a dangerous road. In which do most my footprints lay, The narrow or the broad?
Where have I taken most delight, And pressed with vigor on? In that which leads to death's dark night, Or to a victory won?
My duty have I in the past Sought oftenest to perform; Or cared I not which hence should last, The sunshine or the storm?
Each day the record's made on high, Each night the balance shown; Oh, where do most these footprints lie, Towards which eternal home?
Awake, my soul, to-day be wise, While life and health are given; Press onward for the opening prize, Live not for earth, but Heaven.
Am. Mos.
