TO MY GODSON, C. E. H.
Brighter and brighter, as year by year
You are taught to follow His blessed will,
Kept in his steadfast love and fear,
Fighting and overcoming still.
You are taught to follow His blessed will,
Kept in his steadfast love and fear,
Fighting and overcoming still.
Brighter and brighter, as boyhood speeds,
And youth and manhood pass away,
And the shining path of obedience leads
On to the light of the perfect day.
And youth and manhood pass away,
And the shining path of obedience leads
On to the light of the perfect day.
