There is new strength, repose of mind, and inspiration in fresh apparel |
There is no chance, no destiny, no fate, that can circumvent or hinder or control the firm resolve of a determined soul. |
There is no chance, no destiny, no fate, that can circumvent or hinder or control the firm resolve of a determined soul. |
There is no sudden entrance into Heaven.
Slow is the ascent by the path of Love. |
There is room in the halls of pleasure For a long and lordly train, But one by one we must all file on Through the narrow aisles of pain. |
There's one sad truth in life I've found While journeying east and west - The only folks we really wound Are those we love the best. |
Therefore I do protest against the boast Of independence in this mighty land. Call no chain strong, which holds one rusted link. Call no land free, that holds one fettered slave. |
Think your life was made for dreaming, nothing more, When God's work lies all unfinished at your door? |
This is the way of it, sad earth over, The heart that breaks is the heart of the lover, And the other learns to forget. For what is the use of endless sorrow? Though the sun goes down, it will rise to-morrow; And life is not over yet. |
This is the way of it, wide world over, One is beloved, and one is the lover, One gives and the other receives. |
Thou hast but to resolve, and lo! God’s whole Great universe shall fortify thy soul. |
Though desolate The way may seem, command thy fate. Send forth thy thought - Create--CREATE! |
To sin by silence, when we should protest, Makes cowards out of men. |
Waste no tears Upon the blotted record of lost years, But turn the leaf, and smile, oh! smile, to see The fair white pages that remain for thee. |
We find what we look for in this world. |
