Do Your Best

Do Your Best
H A Phillips
2082

He honest, be earnest, upright and true:
Stelving at all times your duty to do
Living up to your highest light each day,
Not fearing what others may think or why

Ho temperate in all things, doing your best,
And by a rich harvest you’ll surely be blest
Dealing kindly and justly with all others
Remember that all are sisters and brothers

Re faithful in serving, obliging and just:
Never betraying, when reposed with a trust;
Be respectful to the aged and kind to youth;
Encouraging all to live for the truth

Then rich your reward shall be,
Both in time and eternity:
In this self-respect will be the laurel won,
And in the next God will say well done
