Achievement

(Yearbook ‘76,77, First Baptist, Slidell, LA)

I want to be the best I can

To serve my God, my fellow man;

I want to do that which is right

To do my best both day and night.

I want to know, and do God’s will

To find my place, His work fulfill;

I’ll study hard: so much to learn

To find my place, His will discern.

I want to grow to be like Him

In sacrifice: a synonym;

I’ll walk be faith, yea,day by day

And count it not, too much to pay.

I want to serve my fellow man

In what is right, I’ll take my stand;

My motto shall for others be

That I might live my life for Thee.
