It's part of an epic style poem so it doesn't rhyme...
But I really liked it, so I thought I'd post part of it.
Here goes!
Henceforth I learn, that to obey is best,
And love with fear the only God, to walk
As in his presence, ever to observe
His providence, and on him sole depend,
Merciful over all his works, with good
Still overcoming evil, and by small
Accomplishing great things, by things deemed weak
Subverting worldly strong, and worldly wise
By simply meek; by suffering for Truth's sake
Is fortitude to highest victory.....
The poem it's from is: Paradise Lost, by John Milton.
