A life should be so richly strongly

With lovely deeds, with hope,
with love, with cheer;
With rainbow hues made gay by

Into the song of life that knows

A life should be so rich with pure

That naught but wrong should

And striving on to reach the goal

Of self, and not of earthly things

And when at last stand knocking

May we rest within the portaled
