| '''"The Measure of a Man"'''
| |
| | |
| Not "How did he die?"
| |
| But "How did he live?"
| |
| | |
| Not "What did he gain?"
| |
| But "What did he give?"
| |
| | |
| Not "What was his station?"
| |
| But "Had he a heart?"
| |
| | |
| And "How did he play his God-given part?"
| |
| | |
| Not "What was his shrine?"
| |
| Nor "What was his creed?"
| |
| But "Had he befriended those really in need?"
| |
| | |
| Not "What did the piece in the newspaper say?"
| |
| But "How many were sorry when he passed away?"
| |
| | |
| Was he ever ready with a word or good cheer,
| |
| To bring back a smile, to banish a tear?
| |
| These are the units to measure the worth
| |
| Of a man as a man, regardless of birth.
