***How do you measure
The worth of a man
Is it in all the work
He does with his hands
Or in those he knows
He counts on as friends
Is it in how he finishes
Is it how he begins
Is it in how he fly's
Or in how he lands
Is it his trust in God
When he doesn't understand
Is it when the odd's say he can't
But he still feels that he can
Is it where he draws the line
And where he makes his stand
Or how he reacts
When there's nothing left
Is this how you measure
The worth of a man***

Is it where he draws the line
And where he makes his stand
Or how he reacts
When there's nothing left
