Drawing Back Pleases Not God

D-rawing back pleases not God, 
H-e will surely be dismayed; 
A-im at what lies ahead, 
N-ever let your true faith fade.

F-alling back pleases not God, 
E-arly thirteenth of September; 
D-on't let your hope dwindle, 
E-ven during vile weather.
R-emain firm and steady, 
I-n spite of the odd; 
S-tay focused on your goal, drawing back pleases not God.
