PRAYER, by                    
First Line: I do not ask a truce
Last Line: To fight tomorrow!
Subject(s): Prayer


I do not ask a truce
With life's incessant pain;
But school my lips, O Lord,
Not to complain.

I do not ask for peace
From life's eternal sorrow;
But give me courage, Lord,
To fight tomorrow!
