Page 54: clipping transcribed

Between 53 and 54 there was a clipping that looked as though it was from the newspaper but it was probably some sort of Christian publication because it was spiritual on the front and back. It was obvious the What Would Jesus Do? Poem was the reason for this clipping because the other side was chopped up. Also there was a shopping list but I have scanned both as the same image.

What Would Jesus Do?

If washed in Jesus’ blood,
Then bear his likeness too;
And as you onward press,
Ask “What would Jesus do?”

With willing heart and hand,
Your daily task pursue,
Work, for the day wears on;
Ask, “What would Jesus do?”

Be gentle eén when wronged,
Revenge and pride subdue;
When to forgive seems hard,
Ask, “What would Jesus do?”

Be brave and do the right,
And scorn to be untrue;
When fear would whisper “Yield,”
Ask, “What would Jesus do?”

Give with a full, free hand,
God freely gives to you;
And check each selfish thought
With “What would Jesus do?”

Then let the golden thread,
Woven your life-work thro’
Reflecting Heaven’s own light,
Be, “What would Jesus do?”
