Rhyme Scheme: ABABCDEDFGHG IJEKLMN ONPQ| WE climb the hill the mist conceals | A |
| That valley where we could not stay | B |
| Surely this hill's crest gained reveals | A |
| The glory of the sunlit day | B |
| The hill is climbed Still shadow land | C |
| Still darkling looms another hill | D |
| Oh weary feet climb that to find | E |
| A new ascent 'mid shadows still | D |
| We dare not stop or think of rest | F |
| This one hill may be all that lies | G |
| Between us and our souls' desire | H |
| The splendour of the eastern skies | G |

| Through long long lives we till and tend | I |
| Sow weed and water all in vain | J |
| Without the flower we looked to find | E |
| Each year springs blooms and dies again | K |
| Bowed down with our unanswered prayers | L |
| Our face averted from our past | M |
| We watch each year grow green and cry | N |
| 'Surely this brings our flower at last ' | - |
| Failure on failure What tired out | O |
| Too tired to live Heart dare you die | N |
| When this new year may bud and bear | P |
| Your longed for flower of Liberty | Q |
