What 1 Live For.

/ live for those who love me,
For those know are true,
For the heaven that smiles above me,
And awaits my spirit too.
For all human ties that bind me,
For the task my God assigned me,
For the bright hopes left behind me,
And the good that may do.
| live 10 learn their story
Wbov'e suffered for my sake,
To emulate their glory,
And follow in their wake
Bards, patriots, martyrs, sages,
The noble Of all ages,
Whose deeds crowd his,ory's pages,
And Times great volume make.
! live to hold communion
With all that is divine,
To feel there is a union
'Twixt Natures heart aud mine.
To profit by ailiction,
Reap truths from fields of hctioD,
Grow wiser trum conviction,
And fulfil each grand desigu.
I live to hail that season
by gired minds foretold,
When men shall live by reason,
And not alone by gold.
When man to mnn united,
And every wrong thing righted,
The whole world shall be lighted
As Eden was Of old.
live for those who love me,
For those who know the true,
For the heaven that smiles above me,
And awaits my spirit too.
For the cause that lacks assistance,
For the wrong that needs resistance,
For the future in the distance,
For the good that can do.
