Analysis of Building

Valiantstar 1961 (Sydney)



A solid foundation we need.

Each to build upon it.

The work tested, with fervent heat,

Bringing righteousness honour.

There's only one teacher,

In him is rest.

The master craftsmen, craft's the best.

Build with him, with him alone,

And lay the path, to lead them home.
