SOMETHING TO LOOK FORWARD TO.
Reading edition
Something to look forward to, the healthful soul demands, The world stands ready to provide good work for willing hands, Not only is there room for those most competent to climb, But ev’ry man to-day may claim some gift from busy Time. Something to look forward to, some duty nobly done, Some little helpful deed to mark the path from sun to sun; We cannot fear to freely face each mile stone that we meet, When loving actions daily tend to make our lives complete. Something to look forward to, our dearest claims allowed, Though trouble frowns upon the way, we look beyond the cloud; As rainbow brightness has the power to darker shades subdue, The light shall surely shine for those who will the right pursue.
