Alfred Austin 1835-1913 John Bartlett

 
1
    Is life worth living? Yes, so long
  As there is wrong to right.
          Is Life worth living.
2
    So long as faith with freedom reigns
  And loyal hope survives,
And gracious charity remains
  To leaven lowly lives;
While there is one untrodden tract
  For intellect or will,
And men are free to think and act,
  Life is worth living still.
          Is Life worth living.
