RECIPE FOR LIVING
RECIPE FOR LIVING
Alfred Grant Walton
Some things a man surely know,
If he is going to live and grow;
He needs to know that life is more
Than what a man lays by in store,
That more that all he may obtain,
Contentment offers greater grain.
He needs to feel the thrill of mirth,
To sense the beauty of the earth,
To know the joy that kindness brings
And all the worth of little things.
He needs to have an open mind,
A friendly heart for all mankind.
A trust in self, with out conceit,
And strength to rise above defeat.
He needs to have the will to share,
A mind to dream, a soul to dare,
A purpose firm, a path to plod,
A faith in man, a trust in God.
