The noblest man 

In God's great plan 

Is he who will persevere, 

Through boundless love, 

Like that above, 

In deeds that live forever. 












The grandest birth 

Upon 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 rule 

To 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.
