The Faithful Few

When the meeting’s called to order
and you look about the room
you’re sure to see some faces,
that from out the shadows loom.

They are always at the meeting,
and stay till it is through,
the ones that I would mention,
Are the Always Faithful Few.

They fill the vacant offices;
they are always on the spot,
No matter what’s the weather,
though it may be awful hot.

It may be dark and rainy,
but they are tried and true,
the ones that you rely on,
Are the Always Faithful Few.

There are a lot of worthy members,
who come when in the mood?
When everything’s convenient,
they can do a little good.

They’re a factor in the Order,
and are necessary, too,
But the ones who never fail us,
Are the Always Faithful Few?

If it were not for these faithful,
whose shoulders at the wheel,
Keep the Order moving onward,
without a halt or reel.

What would be the fate of Orders?
Who have so much to do,
they surely would go under,
But for the Faithful Few
