Edgar Guest - There Will Always Be Something To DoEdgar Guest - There Will Always Be Something To Do
Work rating: Low


There will always be something to do, my boy;   There will always be wrongs to right; There will always be need for a manly breed   And men unafraid to fight. There will always be honor to guard, my boy;   There will always be hills to climb, And tasks to do, and battles new   From now to the end of time. There will always be dangers to face, my boy;   There will always be goals to take; Men shall be tried, when the roads divide,   And proved by the choice they make. There will always be burdens to bear, my boy;   There will always be need to pray; There will always be tears through the future years,   As loved ones are borne away. There will always be God to serve, my boy,   And always the Flag above; They shall call to you until life is through   For courage and strength and love. So these are things that I dream, my boy,   And have dreamed since your life began: That whatever befalls, when the old world calls,   It shall find you a sturdy man.
