For years I’ve been a salesman

And done quite well indeed

They say that setting lofty goals

Can bring success to me

 

So I have always set my sights

On goals hard to attain

It makes me work much harder

Until that goal I’ve gained

 

But lofty goals are on thing

When they reach for worldly gain

I also  need to set my sights

On goals that don’t bring fame

 

Love my fellow Christian

And even more the lost

Bring joy to all I meet

Leave peace at all costs

 

Never say an unkind word

Never criticize

Be a friend to all around

Until the day I die

 

These are goals that I should have

Every single day

So set your sights on lofty things

And be a friend today.
