Analysis of Class Review

James E. Spurgeon Jr. 1986 (New Jersey)



In these hours, which seems to be the last
They've mustered up enough strength to try and make a pass
At the heart and the mind
At once in one timely swing
Even though they swing ajar
Back and forth with the wind
The rock is a foundation which comes from itself
So look to the rock from which cometh thy health
Look to the rock which is of itself
