A man who can / O. Lawrence Hawthorne
Description: page 31 In: Rotary Club of Manila. The Rotary Balita No. 675 to 698Summary: Let me be known as a man who can- As a man who is eager to try! I may not finish what I began, But the spirit of do-it-or-die Will take me far in whatever game I chance to play in pursuit of fame. Let me be ready for any test, Any problem that duty shall bring. I may not win, though I do my best, But defeat has a less bitter sting For him who knows that men do succeed Whose hearts are true to a noble creed. Let me be willing to fight my way. To the goal I have chosen to gain. The path may prove to be hard each day And my efforts may seem all in vain, But I shall know what it means to feel The ceaseless urge of a great ideal. Let me so live that the world will see In the record I'm leaving behind, No sign of fear or despondency, But high courage of heart and of mind. Consistent with a progressive plan, Let me be known as a man who can!Item type | Current library | Call number | Status | Barcode | |
