Rhyme Scheme: ABABCDED FGFGDDDD DHDHDIDI| Another day of toil and strife | A |
| Another page so white | B |
| Within that fateful Log of Life | A |
| That I and all must write | B |
| Another page without a stain | C |
| To make of as I may | D |
| That done I shall not see again | E |
| Until the Judgment Day | D |
| - | |
| Ah could I could I backward turn | F |
| The pages of that Book | G |
| How often would I blench and burn | F |
| How often loathe to look | G |
| What pages would be meanly scrolled | D |
| What smeared as if with mud | D |
| A few maybe might gleam like gold | D |
| Some scarlet seem as blood | D |

| O Record grave God guide my hand | D |
| And make me worthy be | H |
| Since what I write to day shall stand | D |
| To all eternity | H |
| Aye teach me Lord of Life I pray | D |
| As I salute the sun | I |
| To bear myself that every day | D |
| May be a Golden One | I |
