THE REAL MASON
My Brother, Masonry
is much more
Than the wearing of a ring,
Or the carrying of a dues card
So the lodge will let you in.
What really counts lies very deep
Within the human breast,
Until Masonic teachings,
Put it to the test.
If you can practice out of lodge
The tenets you learn within,
To be just and upright to yourself
And to your fellowmen.
Console a brother when he's sick
Or assist him when in need,
Without a thought of personal gain
For any act or deed.
Walk and act in such a way
That the outside world can see,
None but the best can meet the test
Laid down by Masonry.
Always live up to you trust
And do the best you can,
Then you can proudly tell the world
You are a MASON and a MAN.
