The golden rule
Appears in 49 hymnals First Line: To do to others as I would Lyrics: 1 To do to others as I would
That they should do to me,
Will make me honest, kind, and good,
As children ought to be;
Chorus:
The Sunday-school, the Sunday-school,
It is the place I love;
For there I'll learn the golden rule,
Which leads to joys above.
2 I know I should not steal, nor use
The smallest thing I see,
Which I should never like to lose
If it belonged to me. [Chorus]
3 And this plain rule forbids me quite
To strike an angry blow,
Because I should not think it right
If others served me so. [Chorus]
5 But any kindness they may need
I'll do, whate'er it be;
As I am very glad indeed,
When they are kind to me. [Chorus] Used With Tune: [To do to others as I would]

Richard Storrs Willis
1819 - 1900 Person Name: R. Storrs Willis Composer of "[To do to others as I would]" in Hymnal for Primary Classes Richard Storrs Willis (February 10, 1819 – May 10, 1900) was an American composer, notably of hymn music. One of his hymns is "It Came Upon the Midnight Clear" (1850), with lyrics by Edmund Sears. He was also a music critic and journal editor.
Willis, whose siblings included Nathaniel Parker Willis and Fanny Fern, was born on February 10, 1819, in Boston, Massachusetts. He attended Chauncey Hall, the Boston Latin School, and Yale College where he was a member of Skull and Bones in 1841.
Willis then went to Germany, where he studied six years under Xavier Schnyder and Moritz Hauptmann. While there, he became a personal friend of Felix Mendelssohn. After returning to America, Willis served as music critic for the New York Tribune, The Albion, and The Musical Times, for which he served as editor for a time. He joined the New-York American-Music Association, an organization which promoted the work native of naturalized American composers. He reviewed the organization's first concert for their second season, held December 30, 1856, in the Musical World, as a "creditable affair, all things considered".
Willis began his own journal, Once a Month: A Paper of Society, Belles-Lettres and Art, and published its first issue in January 1862.
Willis died on May 7, 1900. His interment was located at Woodlawn Cemetery.
His works and music compilations include:
Church Chorals and Choir Studies (1850)
Our Church Music (1856)
Waif of Song (1876)
Pen and Lute (1883)
