Safe Pair of Hands

B-e a safe pair of hands, 
A-im to be trustworthy; 
D-on't delay, do the job, 
E-vading the bench neath the
T-ree.

G-et up from your slumber, 
O-n the twenty-fifth of July; 
N-ever tarry nor procrastinate, 
Z-ealously work under the sky.
A-s God gives you the task, 
L-inger not in obeying His commands; 
E-ternal life is in store, 
S-urely for the safe fair of hands.
