Our days are life-miles on the Way
That leadeth to the Perfect Day;
As children of the Lord above
Let's fill them full Of deeds of love.
For God is love; and those His plan
DO best subserve who best serve man
Who teach mankind the way of light,
Of truth and mercy, poace and right.
By love to man whom We have seen,
We show our love to God ween;
Some burdened brother bless to-day,
We shall not pass again this way.
