Hugh MacLennan Quotes
Keep right on to the end of the road, Keep right on to the end. Tho’ the way be long let your heart be strong, Keep right on round the bend. Tho’ you’re tired and weary Still journey on, till you come to your happy abode, Where all you love you’ve been dreaming of Will be there, at the end of the road.
