I am cleaning out files today and I found this, though I don't know who wrote it.
As Latter-day Saint women, we are practically obsessed with anxiously engaging ourselves in good causes. Glancing through the hymnal last Sunday I noted...
As Sister in Zion, we, who are
Called to serve,
Are all enlisted to go
Marching, marching forward because
The world has need of willing men (and women) who all
Press on,
Scattering sunshine.
We wonder if we have done any good in the world today,
Because we have been given much and want to
Do what is right,
Keep the commandments,
Press forward with the saints,
Choose the right, and
Put our shoulders to the wheel,
And go where He wants us to go.
However, as the morning breaks
High on the mountain top,
Truth reflects upon our senses.
And, while we still believe that sweet is the work,
We also realize that we have work enough to do
Ere the sun goes down.
And thus we ask thee ere we part,
Where can we turn for peace?
