COURAGE
Courage! What if the snows are deep,
And what if the hills are long and steep
And the days are short and the nights are long
And the good are weak and the bad are strong.
Courage! The now is a field of play,
And the longest hill has a well-worn way,
There are songs that shorten the longest night,
There’s a day when wrong shall be ruled by right,
So Courage! Courage! ‘Tis never so far
From a plodded path to a shining star. From Guidewords: An Anthology of Inspiration and Humor, compiled by Miriam Hunter.
