Commencement – a beginning of service I trust.
Or will you be, the one to see
Material gain as a must?
Gain in realm of fame of name,
Or pounds of finest gold dust.
Will you be the one, to hinder the Son,
And sit or lie as time goes by
And millions are born and millions die,
And souls are seen, as birds, to fly,
While the church thinks of Me, Mine, and My.
Commencement – a beginning of what?
A beginning of service – I trust!

Where leads the road from commencement?
Ah, yes – where leads that road?
And what be its direction,
And, how heavy its load,
That load, on the road, from commencement.
