How He Lived

Not, how did he die?

But, how did he live?

Not, what did he gain?

But, what did he give?


These are the merits

To measure the worth

Of a man as man,

Regardless of birth.


Not, what was his station?

But, had he a heart?

And how did he play

His God-given part?


Was he ever ready

With word of good cheer

To bring a smile,

To banish a tear?


Not what was his church?

Nor, what was his creed?

But had he befriended

Those really in need?


Not, what did the sketch

In the newspaper say?

But, how many were sorry

When he passed away?
