Up, then, with speed, and work;      Fling ease and self away— This is no time for thee to sleep—      Up, watch, and work, and pray!

     Beyond the smiling and the weeping,           I shall be soon;      Beyond the waking and the sleeping,      Beyond the sowing and the reaping,           I shall be soon!      Love, rest, and home— Sweet hope! Lord, tarry not, but come!

— Horatius Bonar
