Christian Life📖 "Strive to enter in at the narrow gate" -Luke 19:24.

I strive eamestly day by day, and with my might, I strive to be; That I may inherit the home, Which Jesus had prepared for me.

I crane earnestly day by day, And to grasp it with all my might; The crown of glory that is bright, That is prepared for the lov'd ones.

I hope earnestly day by day, To listen to the voice of joy; When here on earth my labour ends, Enter into thy Father's joy.

When friends and world and foes now seek To draw me to perdition way, Let me now with boldness repeat, That I'll follow Thee to the end.

Look unto me my Lord and God, Make me victorious o'er the flesh: That I may not stumble and fall Away from path of glorious home.
