Nobel Deeds
Henry Wadsworth Longfellow
Whene’er a noble deed is wrought,
Whene’er is spoken a noble thought,
Our hearts in glad surprise,
To higher levels rise.
Whene’er is spoken a noble thought,
Our hearts in glad surprise,
To higher levels rise.
The tidal wave of deeper souls
Into our inmost being rolls,
And lifts us unawares
Out of all meaner cares.
Honor to those whose words or deeds
Thus help us in our daily needs,
And by their overflow
Raise us from what is low!
