"I ask a question
This I ask of you…
Is doing right
Even if your heart should break
A greater thing than being happy
Whichever means that might take?
I ask a question
This I ask of you…
Does a cheerful coward
Have greater worth
Than a hero
Who is sad but true?
I ask a question
This I ask of you…
How are we judged
At the last…
Is it by the length of life
Or what we do from end to start?"
