I Would Be True

I would be true, for there are those who trust me;
I would be pure, for there are those who care,
I would be stong, for there is much to suffer;
I would be brave, for there is much to dare.

I would be friend to all-the foe, the friendless,
I would be giving, and forget the gift.
I would be humble, for I know my weakness;
I would look up, and laugh, and love, and lift.

I would be prayerful, through each busy moment,
I would be constantly in touch with God.
I would be tuned to hear His slightest whisper;
I would have faith to keep the path Christ trod.
