Hymns - Believe Not Those Who Say - Текст песни

Believe not those who say
The upward path is smooth,
Lest thou should stumble in the way,
And faint before the truth.

To labor and to love,
To pardon and endure,
To lift thy heart to God above,
And keep thy conscience pure.

Be this thy constant aim,
Thy hope, thy chief delight,
What matter who should whisper blame
Or who should scorn or slight.
