THE BOYS WE NEED

I trust the boy who’s not afraid.

To do his share of work;

Who never is by toil dismayed,

And never tries to shirk.

The boy whose heart is brave to meet

All lions in the way;

Who’s not discouraged by defeat,

But tries another day.

The boy who always means to do

The very best he can;

Who always keeps the right in view,

And aims to be a man.

Such boys as these will grow to be

The man whose heart will guide

The future of our land; and we

Shall speak their names with pride
