Classic Poem

The world with all of its thought and action
Is run by God's electric power;
We are God's improved invention,
He is promoter of the hour.

God is life and light and wisdom,
All that lives is built on him,
On the land and in the water,
The very air we breathe he gives.

Why should man be so egotistic
When he in God's sight is so like the clay;
But God has place for every creature
That in creation lives today.

He has seen fit to give us comfort,
And in peace and happiness to dwell,
If we obey his blest commandments
And do his everlasting will.

Why not make our lives impressive
By helping some one when we can,
And feel that we are each expected
To bring some credit to the land.
