Love Gifts IDEALS ARE LİKE STARS In this world of casual carelessness, it’s discouraging to try To keep our morals and standards and our ideals high. We are ridiculed and laughed at by the smart sophisticate, Who proclaims in brittle banter that such things are out of date … But no life is worth living unless it’s built on truth, And we lay our life’s foundation in the golden years of youth … So allow no one to stop you or hinder you from laying A firm and strong foundation made of faith and love and praying … And remember that ideals are like stars up in the sky, You can never really reach them, hanging in the heavens high, But like the mighty mariner who sailed the storm-tossed sea And used the stars to chart his course with skill and certainty, You, too, can chart your course in life with high ideals and love, For high ideals are like the stars that light the sky above, You cannot ever reach them, but lift your heart up high And your life will be as shining as the stars up in the sky.
