The Every Man, by Choral Responses, 1988

For Every Man who sleeps,

Ten thousand lie awake.

For Every Man who gives,

There are hundreds more who take.

For Every Man who tells the truth,

There are millions telling lies.

For Every Man who Lives,

There's another man who dies.

"With which am I numbered,"

I ask myself, "the many or the few?"

I'd like to say, "I'm the Every Man."

Which one, I ask, are you?
