Stride On

Oh......     another day  .... thrown away
                another pain .... nothing gained

       Stride on - through the shadows
       Stride on - even though it's night
       Stride on - to the 'morrow  
              (to the sunlight)

    
But Oh..    another day  .... thrown away
                 another pain .... nothing changed

 
     ...

No trembling leaf, no breaking clod,
For I, and the wandering sun, do not so quickly pass.

Remember previous walls.  
The difficulty of scaling any height or distance can be shrunk;
It is ever as simple as...
