An Eagle Scout

A different sort is an Eagle Scout

He’s as good on the inside as the out.

True to his God an his nation’s flag

A boy whose loyalties never sag.

An upright boy with a heart of gold

He can take the heat and he can stand the cold.

An adventurous sort of rough, tough lad

He’d share with anyone, all that he had.

He’s cheerful and good, and he’s filled with fun

He always helps till the work is done.

No loafer is he, this young man with skill

With his disciplined heart and mind and will.

He camps and cooks, he hikes and climbs

He can sing a song or make a verse that rhymes.

You can trust an Eagle with all you own

You can count on him when the chips are down.

He’s a splendid youth with a lifetime goal

He’s the type of boy who’s in control.

A rare breed is this young Eagle Scout

Who’s as good on the inside as the out.

So honor the Eagle and model his deeds

He’ll plow rich soil and plant good seeds.

There’s no better young man in this great land,

Than an Eagle Scout with a helping hand!
