Father, hear the prayer we offer
Nor for ease that prayer shall be
But for strength, that we may ever
Live our lives courageously.
Not forever in green pastures
Do we ask our way to be
But the steep and rugged pathway
May we tread rejoicingly.
Not forever by still waters
Would we idly, quiet stay
But would smite the living fountains
From the rocks along our way.
Be our strength in hours of weakness
In our wanderings be our Guide
Through endeavor, failure, danger
Father, be Thou at our side.
Let our path be bright or dreary
Storm or sunshine be our share
May our souls in hope unweary
Make Thy work our ceaseless prayer.
