HELP LIGHTEN THE LOAD!
I lelp lighten the load ! Humanity stumbles ahead on its toad I rged on OYI the deserts, beset b the good ! Men bend under burdens of hungc and care. And women must suffer and toil am despair; Yea, even the children astrax in th« strife, Are bowed b\ the weight till the; wean of life. Hark ? unto each soul that is hero, no slave. How clear sounds the call to arise am lie brave. Help lighten the load ! Help lighten the load! With all of the strength that th< heart can command. With all of the |>ower of brain and oj hand. With wills set to sacrifice, struggle, and dare. W itli love |b it seeks ever ra< li burden to share. With unflagging endeavour that stops not to ask The length of the journey, the < ost o! tile task. Come, sons of the kingdom! Come children of God ! \nd along the dark path by the wot Id’? anguish trod Help lighten the lord! Pris« ilia Leonard.
