If life be long I will be glad,  That I may long obey; If short--yet why should I be sad  To soar to endless day? Christ leads me through no darker rooms  Than He went through before; He that unto God's kingdom comes,  Must enter by this door. Come, Lord, when grace has made me meet  Thy blessed face to see; For if Thy work on earth be sweet,  What will Thy glory be! Then shall I end my sad complaints,  And weary, sinful days; And join with the triumphant saints,  To sing Jehovah's praise. My knowledge of that life is small,  The eye of faith is dim; But 'tis enough that Christ knows all,  And I shall be with him.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/7724</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[In the ink of our sweat we will find it yet, The song that is fit for men! ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/57218]]></link><description><![CDATA[In the ink of our sweat we will find it yet, The song that is fit for men!]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/57218</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Want to learn to eat a lot?
