There are three simple words that begin with an "S,"
They are wise with wisdom, the world cannot guess.
But those who employ them their beauty confess,
Keep silent, keep sweet, and keep stepping.
Keep silent, when rumor against you is stirred
When friendship is hurt, like a broken-winged bird,
When clamors the heart for a right to be heard,
Keep silent, keep sweet, and keep stepping.
Keep sweet, when annoyed by some petty affair
When those whom you love, on your loyalty wear.
When the milk of your spirit is curdled with care,
Keep silent, keep sweet, and keep stepping.
Keep stepping when other folks hinder your way
When wearied and worried, you finish the day,
Too footsore to walk, too breathless to pray
Keep silent, keep sweet, and keep stepping.
Keep silent, and spare yourself needless regret
Keep sweet, and the whole world will be in your debt
Keep stepping with Christ, the truest friend yet
Keep silent, keep sweet, and keep stepping.
