Forget and Remember
Forget each kindness that you do
As soon as you have done it
Forget the praise that falls to you
The moment you have won it
Forget the slander that you hear
Before you can repeat it
Forget each slight, each spite, each sneer
Wherever you meet it
Remember every kindness done to you
Whatever its measure
Remember praise by others won
And pass it on with pleasure
Remember every promise made
And keep it to the letter
Remember those who lend you aid
And be a grateful debtor
Remember all the happiness that
Came your way in living
Forget each worry and distress
Be hopeful and forgiving
Remember good, remember truth
Remember heaven's above you
And you will find through age and youth
That many hearts will love you
And remember
When you are right no one remember, when you are wrong no one forget
Forget each kindness that you do
As soon as you have done it
Forget the praise that falls to you
The moment you have won it
Forget the slander that you hear
Before you can repeat it
Forget each slight, each spite, each sneer
Wherever you meet it
Remember every kindness done to you
Whatever its measure
Remember praise by others won
And pass it on with pleasure
Remember every promise made
And keep it to the letter
Remember those who lend you aid
And be a grateful debtor
Remember all the happiness that
Came your way in living
Forget each worry and distress
Be hopeful and forgiving
Remember good, remember truth
Remember heaven's above you
And you will find through age and youth
That many hearts will love you
And remember
When you are right no one remember, when you are wrong no one forget
