He Will Ring True

Whatever life may bring to you,

"God" will ring true to you;

Star in your sky-

Food in your store-

Staff in your hand-

Friend by your side-

Light on your path-

Joy in your heart-

In your ears music-

In your mouth songs.

Yes, rapid as your race may run,

And scorching as may shine your sun,

And bitter as may blow your blast,

And lonely as your lot be cast-

Whatever life may bring to you,

"God will aye ring true to you.

                                    - Charles Herbert
