That if a man is to get through,
He needs have the courage of Nelson,
And plenty of Job's patience to,
But a man who is kind to another,
And cheerfully helps him along,
We'll claim as a man and a Brother,
,And here's to his health in a song.
CHORUS:-
(Brethren upstanding and sing the chorus
holding their glasses toward the Master)
And here's to his health, here's to his health,
And here's to his health in a song,
And here's to his health, here’s to his health,
And here's to his health in a song
This life is cheerless as winter,
To those who are cold in the heart,
But a man who is warm in his nature,
Bids winter for ever depart,
The ground that he treads on will blossom,
Till beauties around him shall throng,
God bless such a man and a Brother,
And here's to his health in a song.
CHORUS:- (All the Brethren)
As clouds that in sunshine are open,
Are silvered by light passing through,
So men who are generous in spirit,
Are bless'd by the good deeds they do,
There's nothing like helping another,
For getting one's self along,
Who does this is truly a Brother,
And here's to his health in a song.
CHORUS:- (All the Brethren)
