Awake!

AMY G. VIAU

Awake! the dream that mortal sense
Would make for man is done!
Now is the time to rise and know
Dreams have no course to run.
Sink not in error's lethargy,
To slumber for a day;
The call of Truth insistent is,
Arise, and work and pray.
Pray, fervent in the love for man,
That God's will may be done;
And work to know and demonstrate
Man is God's perfect son.
Rejoice to rise and pray and work
For Truth that makes men free;
'Tis God that doeth it, but they
Must break the dream, and see.
