All Labour Gained New Dignity
Since He Who All Creation Made
Toiled With His Hands For Daily Bread
Right Manfully.
No Work Is Commonplace,
Be Done As Unto Him Alone;
Life’s Simplest Toil To Him Is Known
Who Knoweth All.
Each Smallest Common Thing He Makes
Serves Him With Its Minutest Part;
Man Only With His Wandering Heart
His Way Forsakes.
His Service Is Life’s Highest Joy,
It Yields Fair Fruit A Hundred Fold:
Be This Our Prayer: “Not Fame, Nor Gold,
But Thine Employ!”
