Go thy way day by day
The way Heav’n points to thee;
Question ne­ver, trust­ing ev­er—
Peace then shalt thou see.

Refrain

Live aright, day and night,
Loving God for­ev­er;
Bearing cross­es, hea­vy loss­es,
Murmuring—Oh, ne­ver.

Do thy task—ne­ver ask
Why must it be done?
Never bor­row from the mor­row—
Use the pre­sent sun.

Refrain

Then shalt thou, even now,
Live in God and light;
And when dy­ing dread not ly­ing
In the cold and night.

Refrain

For thou know’st as thou sow­est,
So shalt thou e’er reap;
Duty done, is vic­t’ry won and
Sweet the vic­tor’s sleep.

Refrain
