The Strongest Truth
(Tune of “My Strongest Suit” from Broadway play Aida)
In life we have to face many challenges
And naysayers with dubious advice.
Brief, fair-weather friends,
fiscal imbalances
and other forms of hardship and strife.
Compassion. Love. Those make strong winners.
Hurting friends
It doesn’t matter how you dress.
So look past the outer me, notice the inner.
I am one to care with carefulness.
Oh, now I believe in working
Like my time on Earth is earning
A place in heaven where I have most effect.
With my loving guaranteeing
Every fiber of my being
Is working towards a remarkable project.
From birth to strong youth rocking
To your deathbed God is watching
So never compromise standards and sooth.
I’d rather be dis-regraded
Than be a brute, cruel-hearted.
For my love has always been
My strongest truth.
Always care
Be aware
Anytime
Anywhere
Staying in or out about world
From inside and working outward
Present yourself
with empathy and grace.
The bravest are the caring.
The strongest are the sharing.
Forgive your neighbor.
For we all make mistakes.
The hard path’s one less taken.
Self-worth is from perception.
The weakest are the naysayers, it’s true.
But, don’t feel power over the feeble
Listen to needs of people.
Love has always been
My strongest truth.
So, see future with optimism.
Daily, enact charisms.
Show strong-hearted collaboration, to boot.
The gift of peace keeps on giving.
All good effort will bring something.
Compassion, understanding
Love has always been
my strongest truth.
