Labor on, and watch and pray;
Men may scoff and treat you coldly;
Heed them not, go on your way.
Jesus is a loving master;
Cease not, then, this work to do;
Cleave to him still closer, faster,
He will own and honor you.
2 Toil on, teachers! earnest, steady,
Sowing well the seeds of truth;
Always willing, cheerful, ready,
Watching, praying, for your youth.
Patient, firm, and persevering,
Leaning on the promise sure;
Prayer will surely gain a hearing,
Faithful to the end endure. Used With Tune: MEMORY
Persevere
