4 CREED

Faith IN what IS sweet and clean;
Faith that just around the bend
All is peaceful and serene.
Faith that after care and strife
Come the happy days of rest;
Faith that everything in life
Really happens for the best.
This my faith and this my shield
'GainSt the arrows of diStruSt,
Much Of justice is concealed
In what seems to be unjust.
Now what seems a dismal way
That alone I'm forced to tread @
| may come to see some day
Is a glorious path instead.
Undisturbed by petty wrongs,
UndiSmayed by what is mean,
Though the false attracts the tfrongs,
Though the multitude unclean
Though at times stand alone,
Though I'm oft misunderstood,
Faith Still would keep and own
In the decent and the good.
