Be True

10/22/2023

by Horatius Bonnar


Thou must be true thyself
 If thou the truth wouldst teach;
 Thy soul must overflow if thou
 Another's soul wouldst reach.
 It needs the overflow of heart
 To give the lips full speech.
 Think truly, and thy thoughts
 Shall the world's famine feed;
 Speak truly, and each word of thine
 Shall be a fruitful seed;
 Live truly, and thy life shall be
A great and noble creed.
