STEPS by JEANNETTE AUGUSTUS MARKS

First Line: THERE IS A STAIR TO CLIMB
Last Line: MEN CLIMB TO GOD.
Subject(s): GOD; WELLESLEY COLLEGE;
THERE is a stair to climb,
-- Now Christ you keep --
Men stumble there
It is so steep.

Its steps give scarce foothold,
Yet, pilgrim-shod,
Hungry, athirst,
Men climb to God.
