School Thy Feelings, O My Brother;
Train Thy Warm, Impulsive Soul.
Do Not Its Emotions Smother,
But Let Wisdom’s Voice Control.
School Thy Feelings; There Is Power
In The Cool, Collected Mind.
Passion Shatters Reason’s Tower,
Makes The Clearest Vision Blind.
School Thy Feelings, O My Brother;
Train Thy Warm, Impulsive Soul.
Do Not Its Emotions Smother,
But Let Wisdom’s Voice Control.

School Thy Feelings; Condemnation
Never Pass On Friend Or Foe,
Though The Tide Of Accusation
Like A Flood Of Truth May Flow.
Hear Defense Before Deciding,
And A Ray Of Light May Gleam,
Showing Thee What Filth Is Hiding
Underneath The Shallow Stream.
School Thy Feelings, O My Brother;
Train Thy Warm, Impulsive Soul.
Do Not Its Emotions Smother,
But Let Wisdom’s Voice Control.

Should Affliction’s Acrid Vial
Burst O’er Thy Unsheltered Head,
School Thy Feelings To The Trial;
Half Its Bitterness Hath Fled.
Art Thou Falsely, Basely, Slandered?
Does The World Begin To Frown?
Gauge Thy Wrath By Wisdom’s Standard;
Keep Thy Rising Anger Down.
School Thy Feelings, O My Brother;
Train Thy Warm, Impulsive Soul.
Do Not Its Emotions Smother,
But Let Wisdom’s Voice Control.

Rest Thyself On This Assurance:
Time’s A Friend To Innocence,
And The Patient, Calm Endurance
Wins Respect And Aids Defense.
Noblest Minds Have Finest Feelings;
Quivering Strings A Breath Can Move;
And The Gospel’s Sweet Revealings
Tune Them With The Key Of Love.
School Thy Feelings, O My Brother;
Train Thy Warm, Impulsive Soul.
Do Not Its Emotions Smother,
But Let Wisdom’s Voice Control.

Hearts So Sensitively Molded
Strongly Fortified Should Be,
Trained To Firmness And Enfolded
In A Calm Tranquility.
Wound Not Willfully Another;
Conquer Haste With Reason’s Might;
School Thy Feelings, Sister, Brother;
Train Them In The Path Of Right.
School Thy Feelings, O My Brother;
Train Thy Warm, Impulsive Soul.
Do Not Its Emotions Smother,
But Let Wisdom’s Voice Control.
