If only one shall know my name
With pride to care that I have been
A title that might share such fame
And from my cause true passion seen
A name that defines one life
Worthy of fame's price to bear
Lived for peace and free of strife
That's just, in honor, not from fear
I'd be content if called by God
A name that's less than pride affords
That leads to paths so seldom trod
For fortune undescribed in words
From true hearts let names be heard
May lives with love define the words
