THE NEED
Take hold of faith once more.
The faith that we
Can find the way which now we
cannot see.
Faith in ourselves to battle with the
gale—
In times like these to lose that is to
fail!
Take hold of courage now. To sigh
is vain.
The need for rugged strength is
here again.
The days of easy tasks have passed
along,
The morning cries for resolute
hearts and strong.
Take hold of wisdom. Calmly let us
view
The troubled world where there’s so
much to do.
The tasks are hard and many.
Let us then
With the old spirit go to work again.
—Edgar A. Guest.
