Praise and Prayer
I have been well, I have been ill,
I have been rich and poor;
I have set my back against the wall
And fought it by the hour;
I have been rich and poor;
I have set my back against the wall
And fought it by the hour;
I have been false, I have been true;
And thoro' grief and mirth,
I have done all that man can do
To be a man of worth;
And thoro' grief and mirth,
I have done all that man can do
To be a man of worth;
And now, when from an unknown shore,
I dare an unknown wave,
God, who has helped me heretofore,
O help me wi' the lave!
I dare an unknown wave,
God, who has helped me heretofore,
O help me wi' the lave!
