Always Be Good

Even if others always make us sad
       We should always behave nicely to all 

We should be good, we should never be bad
       Even if others always make us sad

If good, for our goodness we will be glad
      Our conscience will not prick, we will stand tall

Even if others always make us sad
      we should always behave nicely to all 

We should be good, we should never be bad
      Even if others always make us sad
             If good, for our goodness we will be glad

Our conscience will not prick, we will stand stand tall
      We should always behave nicely to all 
             We should never sin, we should never fall

Great advice. The world would be a much better place if we all lived like this.

A nice round of musical delight with a moral grounding.

You did great! Third to last verse has an extra “stand”

This form is like that, so many repeating lines. Hope I did it correctly!
