Faithfulness
A magnanimous supply of energy, life, and vision
No talk of quitting but a change of venue desirable
Moreover, from the depths of the soul a cry was heard
"Let me be worked and worn when I come to die
Let me be fully employed when I exit for the sky
Let all of me be fully given when I take my flight
May I leave it all on the court or the playing field
Making sure I have done my part to help and heal
Also heard were potent words from The Holy Bible
"It is required of Stewarts that they be found faithful"
And written for all to see on the hearts of many a labored
And submissive soul were words which read, "It's not so much
What we shall see when we reach our anticipated destiny, but
Rather, it is what we hear when The Master says, well done
Thou good and faithful servant."
