ONE LIFE TO LIVE
I shall not pass this way again,
But far beyond earth’s where and when,
May I look back along a road
Where on both sides good seed I sowed.

I shall not pass this way again,
May wisdom guide my tongue and pen.
And love be mine that so I may
Plant roses all along the way.

I shall not pass this way again,
May I be courteous to men.
Faithful to friends, true to my God.
A fragrance on the path I trod.
