LYRICS
LOYAL HEARTS
(Life’s Mirror)
There are loyal hearts, there are spirits brave,
There are souls that are pure and true;
Then give to the world the best you have,
And the best will come back to you.
Give love, and love to your life will flow,
A strength in your utmost need;
Have faith, and a score of hearts will show
A strength in your utmost need;
Have faith, and a score of hearts will show
Their faith in your word and deed.
Give truth, and your gift will be paid in kind,
And honour will honour meet;
And a smile that is sweet will surely find
And honour will honour meet;
And a smile that is sweet will surely find
A smile that is just as sweet.
Give sorrow and pity to those who mourn;
You will gather in flowers again
The scattered seeds of your thought out-borne,
The scattered seeds of your thought out-borne,
Though the sowing seemed but vain.
For life is the mirror of king and slave
‘Tis just what we are and do;
Then give to the world the best you have,
Then give to the world the best you have,
And the best will come back to you.
Madeline Bridges (1844-1920)
