But cleaves a pathway thro' the strife, and bids men follow him.
No blot upon his stainless shield, no weakness in his arm ; No sign of trembling in his face to break his valor's charm : One man like this could stay the flight and lead the wavering line ; Ah, give me but a year of life — I '11 make that glory mine !
• ••••• Religion ? Yes, I know it well ; I 've heard its prayers and creeds, And seen men put them all to shame with poor, half-hearted deeds.
They follow Christ, but far away ; the...y wander and they doubt.
I '11 serve him in a better way, and live his pre- cepts out.
59 You see^ I *ve waited just for this ; I could not be content To own a feeble, faltering faith with hvanan weakness blent.
Too many runners in the race move slowly^ stumble, fall ; But I will run so straight and swift I shall out- strip them all.
Oh, think what it will mean to men, amid their foolish strife, To see the clear, unshadowed light of one true Christian life.
Without a touch of selfishness, without a taint of sin, — With one short month of such a life a new world would begin !
