There Goes An Alpha Man​

​

There goes a man of high impulse, of princely mien and grace.
There goes a man of humble faith, a credit to his race.
There goes a man of conscious vast, with will to reach his goal.
There goes a man of lordly rank of heroes stock and soul.
There goes a man of noble cast whom hardship cannot break.
There goes a man in merit clad, whom duty won’t forsake.
There goes a man of culture verse, who holds a sportsman’s creed.
There goes a man too vigilant to bow to lust or greed.
There goes a man whose life is spent in service, not in scorn.
There goes a man whose majesty shines like a may time morn.
There goes a man who is a friend to love and duty truth.
There goes a man to help uplift the lives of wholesome youth.
There goes a man with industry and faith at his command.
There goes the best man in or out for he’s an Alpha Man.

To Be An Alphaman

​

To be an Alphaman means more than just to wear a pin;
It requires intrinsic qualities that are developed deep within.

It calls for lasting Brotherhood, a word sometimes used in vain; 
It means an honest devotion, not anticipation of personal gain. 

Fraternity speaks of Brotherly Love, that’s something to achieve;
It’s more than just a grip of hands, It’s an ideal to conceive.

You’re proud to be an Alpha, and share Her praises won,
But before you inflate yourself with pride,
ask yourself, honestly, “How much have I done?”

To realize the wealth of personal satisfaction from knowing you’ve given your all,
To have helped Her cause unfalteringly, when you rally to Her call;
To combine all these qualities, and root them deep within,
The product would be an Alphaman, deserving of his pin.

So take an honest inventory of your character within,
And for every virtue you find missing, try and weave it in.

For a man without these virtues isn’t worth a grain of sand.
It’s plain to see, it’s more than just a pin, that makes an Alphaman.
