Into the sunshine,

Full of the light,

Leaping and

From morn till night!

Into the moonlight,

Whiter than snow,

Waving so

When the winds blow!

Into the starlight,

Rushing in spray,

Happy at midnight,

Happy by day!

Ever in motion,

Blithesome and cheery.

Still climbing heavenward,

Never

Glad of all weathers,

Still seeming best,

Upward or downward,

Motion thy rest;—Full of a

Nothing can tame,

Changed every moment,

Ever the same;—Ceaseless aspiring,

Ceaseless content,

Darkness or

Thy element;—Glorious fountain!

Let my heart

Fresh, changeful, constant,

Upward, like thee!
