Valiantly grasping occasions and not cravenly doubting-
Freedom comes only through deeds,
not through thoughts taking wing.
Faint not nor fear, but go out to the storm and the action,
trusting in God whose commandment you faithfully follow;
freedom, exultant, will welcome your spirit with joy.

So full of failure and regret;
Look ahead and seek God's way--
All sin confessed you must forget.
