Ella Wheeler Wilcox - I will be Worthy of it
Work rating: Low

I may not reach the heights I seek,

My untried strength may fail me,

Or, half-way up the mountain peak,

Fierce tempests may assail me.

But though that place I never gain,

Herein lies comfort for my pain—

I will be worthy of it.

I may not triumph in success,

Despite my earnest labor;

I may not grasp results that bless

The efforts of my neighbor;

But though my goal I never see,

This thought shall always dwell with me—

I will be worthy of it.

The golden glory of Love`s light

May never fall on my way;

My path may always lead through night,

Like some deserted by-way;

But though life`s dearest joy I miss

There lies a nameless strength in this—

I will be worthy of it.
