THE BRAVEST SOUL
MARCUS GARVEY
The toil of life is never ending;
It passes from one stage to
others;
We live beneath its sombre bending,
And ape the
customs of our fathers.
We glory in its radiant joys,
And smile with the everlasting
sun;
This eternal change that man employs,
Has been so from
Adam's day begun.
The bravest soul truly conquers all,
In seeing God in our fellow
man,
This planet is just a spinning ball
Of God's wondrous
spiritual plan.
In this life we may know no better;
But in death we pass to
Spirit Land,
Where the Soul is free from all fetter,
To
join God in His creative hand.
August 22, 1927
