Men who feel quite adequate
To tell you which “i” to dot,
To tell you what you are to do – not;
Ought also to be able
To tell you how humbly to praise,
How in quietude and true gratitude
You should voice and hands raise.
We lack not for “liners up,”
And men who love that line,
We need men who will lead to worship
Men who live and love in the divine.
Oh, may the incense of my heart
Toward heaven daily depart!
