THE TRUTHS OF OLD, OH HEART OF MAN.
Reading edition
The truths of old, oh heart of man, Speak forth with free impressive tongue, For righteousness thy thoughts express, The seeming mysteries of God’s plan; Let thoughts emerge from heart and brain, In spoken accents sweet and low, Give to the world your very best, For in His plan God willed it so. All nature moves in harmony, No discord mars the glad refrain Of sun, and moon, and stars above, Of trees and flow’rs on hill and plain; Oh! heart of man with truths of old, In love and justice rule the earth, Resplendent shine like purest gold, Without alloy, oh heart of man.
