The pure.the bright,the beautiful,
That stirred our hearts in youth,
The impulses to wordless rayer,
The dreams of love and truth;
The longing after something's lost,
The spirit's yearning cry,
The striving after better hopes
These things can never die.
The timid hand stretched forth to aid
A brother in his need,
A kindly word in grief's dark hour
That proves a friend indeed;
The plea for mercy softly breathed,
When justice threatens nigh,
The sorrow of a contrite heart
These things shall never die.
Let nothing pass for every hand
Must find some work to do;
Lose not a chance to waken love
Be firm, and just, and true;
So shall a light that cannot fade
Bean on thee from on high.
And angel voices say to thee
These things shall never die.
