Live Your Creed
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
I'd rather see a sermon
than to hear one any day.
I'd rather one walk with me
than just to show the way.
The eye is a better pupil
and more willing than the ear.
Advice may be misleading
but examples are always clear.
And the very best of teachers
are the ones who live their creed,
For to see good put into action
is what everybody needs.
I can soon learn to do it
if you let me see it done.
I can watch your hand in motion
but your tongue too fast may run
And the lectures you deliver
may be very fine and true
But I'd rather get my lesson
by observing what you do.
For I may misunderstand you
and the fine advice you give
But there's no misunderstanding
how you act and how you live.
