	2 Perish policy and cunning, Perish all that fears the light! Whether losing, whether winning, Trust in God, and do the right. Trust no party, sect, or faction; Trust no leaders in the fight; But in every word and action Trust in God, and do the right. 3 Trust no lovely forms of passion,— Fiends may look like angels bright; Trust no custom, school, or fashion: Trust in God, and do the right.	Some will hate thee, some will love thee, I Some will flatter, some will slight; Cease from man, and look above thee) Trust in God, and do the right. 4 Simple rule, and safest guiding, Inward peace, and inward might, j Star upon our path abiding,— Trust in God, and do the right. Courage, brother! do not stumble, Though thy path be dark as night; There's a star to guide the humble: 1 " Trust in God, and do the right. Rev. Norman Maclkod, 1837
