Need verses for Happy the Man song by Sebastian Temple

This was in a Catholic Hymnal at a funeral I attended back in about 1978. It had some verses & a chorus. I have words & music for the chorus, but I'd like to have the verses, too. The church burned shortly after that time and I do not know the name of the hymnal book it was in.

Thanks, Choirgirl

Happy the man who wanders with the Lord.
Happy the man who know s how to live,
Happy the man who never seeks reward,
Giving because he loves to give.

He seeks no gold,
He wants no gain,
He knows those things are all in vain.

He needs no praise nor honor too,
His only motto, "to your own self be true."

Happy the man who learned how to pray,
Happy the man who has a burning goal,
Happy the man whose service needs no pay.

This man has found his own soul,
Happy the man,
Happy the man of the Lord.
