    The best verse hasn't been rhymed yet,
    The best house hasn't been planned,
    The highest peak hasn't been climbed yet,
    The mightiest rivers aren't spanned;
    Don't worry and fret, faint-hearted,
    The chances have just begun
    For the best jobs haven't been started,
    The best work hasn't been done.

fur fertig erklaren, wenn man nach Zeit und Umstand das
Moglichste getan hat.]

The Lord had a job for me, but I had so much to do,
I said, "You get somebody read more

The Lord had a job for me, but I had so much to do,
I said, "You get somebody else--or wait till I get through."
I don't know how the Lord came out, but He seemed to get along:
But I felt kinda sneakin' like, 'cause I know'd I done Him wrong.
One day I needed the Lord--Needed Him myself--needed Him right
away,
And He never answered me at all, but I could hear Him say
Down in my accusin' heart, "Nigger, I'se got too much to do,
You get somebody else or wait till I get through."

I am nothing and to nothing tend,
On earth I nothing have and nothing claim,
Man's noblest read more

I am nothing and to nothing tend,
On earth I nothing have and nothing claim,
Man's noblest works must have one common end,
And nothing crown the tablet of his name.
