It’s SILENCE when your words would hurt

It’s PATIENCE when your brother is curt

It’s DEAFNESS when some gossip flows

It’s COMPASSION for a brother’s woe

It’s COURAGE when misfortune falls

It’s FIRMNESS when one’s duty calls

It’s WILLINGNESS to help another

It’s TRUSTING and especially a brother

It’s RESTITUTION made when due

It’s FORGIVING when asked of you
