Love myself last. Look near, behold thy duty
To those who walk beside thee down life's
road:
Make glad their days by little acts of beauty.
And help them bear the burden OF earth's
load
Love thyself last Look far and find the
stranger.
Who staggers meath his sin and his despair:
Go lend a hand. and lead him out Of danger,
To heights where he may see the world Ia
fair.a
Love thyself last The businesses above thee
Are filled with spirit forces, strong and
pure.
And fervently these faithful friends shall love
thee,
Keep thou thy watch DER others and endure.
Love thy self last; and oh, such joy shall thrill
thee
AS never yet to selfish souls was given.
Whate'er thy lot. a perfect peace will fill thee,
And earth shall seem the anteroom Of Heaven
Love thyself last; and thou shalt grow in
spirit
TO see. to hear, to know, and understand.
The message of the stars, 10, thou shalt hearit,
And all Gods joys shall be at thy command.
Love thyself last The world shall be made
better
Go follow it in spirit and in letter,
This is the true religion which men need.
