A Poem about Men

MEN

The world today is looking for...
Men who are not for sale;
Men who are honest; sound from center to circumference,
True to the heart's core;
Men with consciences as steady as the needle to the pole.
Men who will stand for the right if the heavens totter and the earth reels
Men who can tell the truth and look the world right in the eye;
Men who neither brag nor run;
Men who neither flag nor flinch;
Men who can have the courage without shouting it;
Men in whom courage of everlasting life runs still, deep and strong;
Men who know their message and tell it;
Men who know their business and attend unto it;
Men who will not lie, shirk or dodge;
Men who are not too lazy to work, nor too proud to be poor;
Men who are willing to eat what they have paid for;
Men who are not ashamed to say " I can't afford it."
God is looking for men.
He wants those who can unite together around a common faith
Who can join hands in a common task
And who have come to the kingdom for such a time as this.God give us men.
