The sun that shines in other lands Shall also shine for me; The storms that rage in other lands Shall rage across the sea, And all that comes to other lands Shall also come to me. The joys that gladden other hearts Shall make me happy, too; The beauty that draws other eyes Shall draw both me and you; And sorrows that make others sad Shall hush my laughter, too. The Hand that guides my fellow-men Shall be the guide for me, And as the ways grow light for them When I go, so it will be; And the God Who helps my fellow-men Shall do the same for me. | Discover our Poem Explanations and Poet Analyses!Other Poems of Interest...LA NOCHE TRISTE by ROBERT FROST HOW THEY GO ON by JAMES GALVIN FINALITY by GEORGIA DOUGLAS JOHNSON SPRINGTIDE by GEORGIA DOUGLAS JOHNSON THE WALL STREET PIT, MAY, 1901 by EDWIN MARKHAM DOMESDAY BOOK: THE HOUSE THAT JACK BUILT by EDGAR LEE MASTERS |
