OF INTEREST IN THE
— SOCIAL REALM
JUst to be tender, just to be true,
Just to be glad the whole day through,
Just to be merciful, just to be mild,
Just to be trustful as a child;
Just to be gentle and kind and sweet,
Just to be helped with willing feet,
Just to be cheery when things go
wrong,
Just to drive sadness away with song.
