A little more devotion,
To Christian piety;
A little more endurance
And deep humility,
Would add much to the victory
We in this warfare make,
And make the prize more precious
Which we soon hope to take.
A little more exertion
To serve the Lord entire;
A little more denial,
To raise the mind up higher,
Would much enhance the beauty
Of “life that’s hid in God,”
And make our home more certain,
When we the path have trod.
