Oh, help us, Lord,
when weariness tempts
us to recoil . . .
from pledges writ' in faith
to you, efforts the enemy
so tries to foil ~

Keep us pressing
toward the mark
you called our feet to seek . . .
no matter difficulties,
rejections, nor times
determination is weak ~

Strengthen and empower us,
dear Lord, the prize
is, oh, so dear . . .
High calling of God
in Christ Jesus
encouragement loud & clear ~

Every voice, but yours,
be silenced, disallusionments
drowned in praise . . .
that pressing toward the mark
becomes, sweet Lord,
HEARTSONG OF ALL OUR DAYS !
