To each his own

Give to each thy ear,

But to few thy voice

Give to each thy presence,

But to few thy attention

Give to each thy statement,

But to few thy opinion

Give to each thy audience,

But to few thy cognition

Give to each thy appreciation,

But to few thy respect

Give to each thy education,

But to few thy knowledge

Give to each thy valuable time,

But to few thy sacred space

Give to each thy loudest clap,

But to few thy admiration

Give to each thy sermon,

But to few thy gospel truth 

Give to each thy good,

But to few thy best!
