MASONRY—ITS CHARITY AND UNIVERSALITY . By S . B . SUMMER . As over life ' s thoroughfares jostling we go , Tow ' rd the same common goal where the dark waters flow ; It is well by the wayside to pause , now and then . To recall that we ' re brothers , and feel that we ' re men .
All along on our march , if we will but behold , Life's sunny oases their beauties unfold ; We may linger to rest and refresh , if we will , Like the Craftsman of old , at the brow of the hill . We honor the Order which brings us , to-night , As Brothers , in words of good cheer to unite ; To join in this ancient fraternal communion ,
This cordial , old-fashioned , Masonic re-union . We honor the Order , whose principles dear , Make each man with his fellow a recognized peer ; And whoso language of emblem and signal are one , 'Neath a boreal sky and a tropical sun . Whose ritual , solemn , antique , and sublime , Outliving its history , lasting as time ; Still charms and controls , with its mystical sway , As in Solomon's reign and Zerubbabel's day .
We honor its tenets , which gladly bestow Equal favors on all—on the lofty and low ; High as heaven , broad as earth , deep as nethermost sea—Even such should a true Mason ' s charity be . We ope not our portals at wealth's proud behest , Nor to Fame , with her plume and heraldical crest ; But to hiin , high or humble , who honestly brings
The warm throbbing heart , from which Masonry springs . That heart , whether hid ' neath the vesture of toil , 'Neath the garb of the peasant who tilleth the soil , Or the fabric in which one worm dresseth another ; We hail it the same , as the badge of a Brother . 'Neath the mariner ' s jacket , afar on the deep , You shall test itand find it is never asleep ;
, 'Neath the rude savage breast , when no mortal is nigh , It is visible still to the All-Seeing Eye . Its presence is heeded in every zone , By Priest at the altar , by King on his throne ; Wheresoever the tribes and the races belong , Lo ! Masonry ' s vast , multitudinous throng .
And Masonry ' s mission ; 'tis simply to prove , 'Mid the discords of life , how potential is love ; To revere what is sacred ; to feel what is human ; Show good will to man and true honor to woman . Be it ours , in our day , to preservo it alive—In Faith , Hope , and Charity , long may it thrive ; Till mankind , iu the light of its deeds , shall agree , That the whole world , one Grand Lodge of Masons should be !
