A Call to Duty
"...A call to duty will make things right, and bring poor folks a day so bright!"
Rated:

This item requires reviews with ratings.
It’s the knowledge that we must cull
From the insanity and the ‘bull’:
Within the existence of opportunity
Lies the spirit of the call to duty.

You say that you are right to complain,
That others simply cause you pain,
But a call to duty will make things right,
And bring poor folks a day so bright!

For we’re the light so pure and radiant,
And God is but a day well-spent!
Because helping folks do their best is all
It will ever take for us to enthrall…

A sense of hope would be enticing –
That opportunity is such a nice thing!
But the call to make others best
Is what separates us from all the rest!
