Don’t know why but suddenly I was humming the tune for this song today.
I would be true, for there are those who trust me;
I would be pure, for there are those who care;
I would be strong, for there is much to suffer;
I would be brave, for there is much to dare;
I would be brave, for there is much to dare.
I would be friend of 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 look up, and laugh, and love and lift.
I would be faithful through each passing moment;
I would be constantly in touch with God;
I would be strong to follow where He leads me;
I would have faith to keep the path Christ trod;
I would have faith to keep the path Christ trod.

To be truthful, pure, strong and brave.
To be a friend, always giving and always humble, to look up, to laugh in joy, to love everyone and to lift those in the dumps.
To be faithful and close to God, forever close and abiding, Him in me and I in Him walking down the path to glory.
