**There are men alive on the earth today  
Abhorred and despised by the world;  
They live their lives in a quiet way—  
No banners for them are unfurled\.  
They are not gifted in intellect,  
Nor brilliant in pen or word;  
But their faces the light of the Lord reflect  
And their souls with His love are stirred\.**

**There are men who walk on the earth today  
Who bear no distinguishing sign;  
They work for money their bills to pay;  
Their houses and cars are not fine;  
They have no letters behind their name,  
No medals upon their walls,  
And they do not appear in earth’s halls of fame,  
But they’re mentioned in heaven’s halls\.**

**In a million years, when the world has passed,  
And with it its pomp and its pride,  
Man’s fame and wealth will have all been cast  
In the graves with the men who died\.  
The lofty thoughts of the very wise,  
With their medals, will ashes be;  
But the men with eternity in their eyes  
Will live for eternity\.**
