1.I would be true, for there are those who trust me; I would be pure, for there are those who care; I would be strong, for there is much to suffer; I would be brave, for there is much to dare; I would be brave, for there is much to dare. 2.I would be friend of all'the foe, the friendless; I would be giving, and forget the gift; I would be humble, for I know my weakness; I would look up, and laugh, and love, and lift; I would look up, and laugh, and love, and lift. 3.I would be learning, day by day, the lessons My heavenly Father gives me in His word; I would be quick to hear His lightest whisper, And prompt and glad to do the things I've heard; And prompt and glad to do the things I've heard.
