  • Virtue

    Good character, good deeds, live without stain
    Blessed by such virtue, honor you’ll gain

    Practice virtue and for goodness strive
    Your days will be blessed and you will thrive

    Do good deeds then throw them in the ocean
    Seek not praise, know God sees your devotion

    The effort to have purity of mind,
    Is well worth the hard endeavor and time

    A clean mind will inspire one to do good deeds
    Such virtue in life will guarantee one succeeds

    Good deeds should always be begun and done
    Vice is a behavior that one should shun

    Lust, anger, envy and foul speech
    Will keep a pure mind out of your reach

    If you make good deeds your daily diet
    Noise of bad thoughts in the mind will quiet

    Virtue gives birth to joyful delight
    That makes your future serene and bright

    Do not put off doing a good deed
    It will help you when you are in need

    For goodness engenders goodness and cheer
    For the pure of heart, gentle and sincere

    What value of practicing virtue each day?
    You’ll be honored and loved when your hair turns gray!

    When you die and leave this dark world
    Your good name will remain, your glories unfurled
