Forward thy watchword, while ’tis light.

Faith I teach through hours I give,

And men trust me while they live.

I show the road to health this way,

By ending work at close of day.

God’s greatest gift to man is thine,

To read the hour when sun doth shine.

The greatest conquerors in strife,

Is time, then love the light of life.

These hours that please or that pain,
