"In the world's broad field of battle
In the bivouac of Life,
Be no like dumb, driven cattle
Be a hero in the strife.

...

Lives of great men all remind us

We can make our lives sublime

And departing leave behind us

Footprints on the sands of time."

Footprints, that perhaps another,
Sailing o'er life's solemn main,
A forlorn and shipwrecked brother,
Seeing, shall take heart again.
