(this is a whole pageant song, with signs and directions for presentation... see the sheet music) I'm thinking what a pleasant thing 'Twould be for me and you If old Deceit were dead and gone And all the world were true. And all the world were true, were true, And all the world were true. If old Deceit were dead and gone, And all the world were true. I'm thinking what a noble race Of people we might see If every man in all the land, An honest man would be. An honest man would be, would be, An honesdt man would be. If every man in all the land An honest man wuold be. I'm thinknig what a joyful day Is coming soon, we trust When Ruler Wrong shall pass away And all the world be just. And all the world be just, be just, And all the world be just When Ruler Wrong shall pass away And all the world be just. I'm thinking what a happy time Is coming some day, sure, When things unclean shall be removed And all the world be pure. And all the world be pure, be pure, And all the world be pure. When things unclean shall be removed And all the world be pure. I'm thinking of the lovely things In this wide world we see And, oh, if earth seems bright and fair How lovely heaven must be. How lovely heaven must be, must be, How lovely heaven must be. And oh, if earth seems bright and fair, How lovely heaven must be. Yes, true and honest, just and pure Present a lovely sight, May only good report be heard Of this our song tonight. Of this our song tonight, tonight, Of this our song tonight. May only good report be heard Of this our song tonight. If there be any firtue, if there be any praise, Think upon these things, and... Follow on in virtue's ways 'Tis wisdom sweetly sings, Be this thy chiefest noblest praise To think upon these things.
