This is the law of the Yukon, that only the Strong shall thrive;
That surely the Weak shall perish, and only the Fit survive.

My pipe is out, my glass is dry; My fire is almost ashes too; But once again, before you go, And I prepare to meet the New : Old Year! a parting word that's true, For we've been comrades, you and I - I thank God for each day of you; There! bless yo

A Promise made is a debt unpaid

Ah! the clock is always slow; It is later than you think; Sadly later than you think; Far, far later than you think

Think of all you planned to do. . . .
Have you done the best you can?

Yes, if you're a tramp in tatters,
While the blue sky bends above
You've got nearly all that matters--
You've got God, and God is love.

You may toil with brain and sinew,
And though little wealth it win you,
If there's health and hope within you --
You've made good .

And each forgets that his youth has fled,
Forgets that his prime is past,
Till he stands one day, with a hope that's dead,
In the glare of the truth at last.

His life, though none too long,
Was never dull:
Of woman, wine and song
Bill had his full.

No need to race, slow down the pace,
Go easy, Pals -- you'll linger longer.

For I have found it wise in life
To take the luck the way it's coming;
A wake, a worry or a wife --
Just carry on and keep a-humming. . . .

What guy has got the guts of Bill!

When we, the Workers, all demand: "What are we fighting for?" . . .
Then, then we'll end that stupid crime, that devil's madness -- War.

Ah yes, I know my brow is low
And often wished it high.
So that I might with rapture write
An epic of the sky. . . .

Aye, teach me, Lord of Life, I pray,
As I salute the sun,
To bear myself that every day
May be a Golden One.
