What Will Thy Record Be?

Representative Text

1 Heart, 'is it well with thee?' Well with the soul?
What will thy record be, As the years roll
On toward eternity; will it speak peace?
In the world's strife with thee, never to cease.

2 Life is so real, so Grand and so true,
If our ideal we Closely pursue;
Raising our standard as high as we may;
Toiling on heav'nward while yet it is day.

3 Strive for the right, ever Live down the wrong,
Earnest endeavor, is What makes us strong;
God's spark within the heart, ne'er can grow dim,
If we but do our part, looking to him.
