Song OF the Sportsman
We only know life at it's best
Who take the game as it may go,
Who face Fate and the final test
With heads up. to the closing blow
Who'd rather charge on than retreat,
And yet who hold the game too high
To have il wrecked by n defeat
Or have 1t shadowed by n sigh.
Our effort is to give all.
In valiant hope that we will win.
But if, by chance, we como to fall,
We hold no failure as sin,
But rather, with a stouter heart
That sees no reason to despond,
We gather for another start
Against the day that waits beyond
To know the prize is not our creed;
For we have found rewards will wait
Somewhere some time, above our need.
So long as we can face our fate
With unbowed head. without a tear,
Regardless OF the goal at stake.
With souls that have forgotten fear
And hearts that heaven couldn't break.
