Surge Forward Toward Salvation

S-urge forward toward salvation, 
H-owever hard life may be; 
E-xert your efforts to win, 
R-un the race in victory.
Y-ou begin with energy, you must come up strong; 
L-ife eternal is reserved for the fold where you belong.

M-ove forward toward reward, 
A-lthough the road is rough; 
Y-ou shall be triumphant
O-nly when you stay so tough.
N-ew heaven and new earth
T-ell about true satisfaction; 
E-ighth morn in warm July, surge forward toward salvation.
