Each Step Along the Way

Step by step I’ve climbed this hill

I’m sure I’m near the top

And coming close to what I seek

I’ve determined not to stop.

Though I’ve grown quite weary

With every step to bear,

If I stop now I’ll be stuck here

And never will reach there.

So on I go and up the hill

Until I reach my goal.

The journey and the journey’s end

Both precious to my soul.
