When Fortunes Frown.
When fortunes frown, the woes, bedight With brooding shadows, bring the night, While dismal sorrows darkness dole, And disappointments rise and roll Above the longings for the light. Despair, with hands that curse and blight, Sows weakness in the hearts of might Until they falter near the goal, When fortunes frown. But onward still! The valleys white With Heaven's blossoms are in sight; The Holy Mountains, knoll on knoll, Are waiting for the Master Soul, And he shall conquer for the right, When fortunes frown!
