Appears in 5 hymnals First Line: Labor fearless, labor faithful Lyrics: 1 Labor fearless, labor faithful, Labor while the day shall last; For the shadows of the evening, Soon the sky shall overcast; Ere shall end thy day of labor, Ere shall rest thy manhood's sun, Strive with every power within thee, That th' appointed task be done. 2 Life is not the traceless shadow, Nor the wave upon the beach; Tho' our days are brief, yet lasting Is the stamp we give to each; Life is real; life is earnest, Full of labor, full of thought; Every hour and every moment, Is with living vigor fraught.
