Stay in the present, where life unfolds,
Give your best in all, with a heart that holds.
Speak not in anger, nor with jesting spite,
Let kindness be your constant light

Choose the next right thing, steady and true,
Build up, never tear down, in all you do
Love your neighbor as yourself, with care,
Greet the world warmly, show you’re there

Cherish your family, shield them from harm,
Reach out to the stranger, extend your arm
Be good, be just, whether woman or man,
Do what is right, because you can

Not for reward, or for life beyond,
But for the joy of a heart that’s strong
In the simple rightness of every choice,
You’ll find true laughter, and a peaceful voice
