THE BEST OF SOME THINGS
The noblest manIn God's great plan
Is he who will persevere,
Through boundless love,
Like that above,
In deeds that live forever.
The grandest birthUpon the earth
Is not of rank―or fashion,
But one who shows
At others' woes
His love and great compassion.
The greatest wealth,
Debarring health,
Which mortals can inherit,
Produces deeds
Surpassing creeds in grand and peerless merit.
The grandest ruleTo learn in school is every man's a brother,
And always true
To never do Injustice to another.
The truest strife
To have in life
Is found in noble doing,
Surpassing men
In action when
The earth with love they're strewing.
The Godlike church
Will ever search
For ways to save a brother,
And prove its creed
In time of need
By aiding one another.
The noblest soul
Will find its goal
In love and deeds fraternal,
And when at last
The earth is past,
Will go to life eternal.
