As we onward press our way;
Building not for time are we,—
Building for eternity.

O direct us, Lord, we pray;
If supported by Thy hand,
Surely, then, our house shall stand. [Refrain]

In the deeds of kindness done,
And the vict’ries we have won. [Refrain] Topics: Work Languages: English Tune Title: [We are building day by day]
