PULL WITH A WILL TOGETHER
As rowing adown Life’s stream we glide The skies may be fair and smiling, The hedgerows with flowers decked as a bride, The birds’ music sense beguiling. The hours, full of sun, may glide away As lightly our oaru we feather, And Life is one glorious gladsome day As we pull with a will together. But oft as we row the storms arise, The clouds gather darksome o’er us, The sunshine is fled from all the skies, And breakers loom large before us. The boat may be tossed on fierce waves high, We seem at the end cf our tether, But safely through dangers all we fly If we pull with a will together. So whether the skies be bright and bine Or black with the clouds of sorrow, Wo bend on our oars and battle through And hope for a glad tc-morrow: We bend to the rowlocks and chant a song In sunny or rainy weather. The way to our haven won’t be long If we pull with a will together.
