..........Someone..........

 
Someone should teach the poor children to live
A life filled with goodness:  kind words, good deeds;
Happy is he who such lessons shall give,
For he's fulfilled one of life's greatest needs.
     Someone should tell
     Them to live well,
     But should that someone be me?
     I see the need
     To sow good seed,
     Yes, that someone should be me.

Someone the erring children should rescue,
Snatching them from the flaming fires of hell;
Be there, and help them, all their journey through,
Help them get up, no matter why they fell.
     Someone should care...
     Take time to share...
     But should that someone be me?
     I see the need
     To sow good seed,
     Yes, that someone should be me.

Someone should hear the poor widow crying,
Someone should wipe her bitter tears away;
Someone should help the feeble and dying,
Someone, yes someone, should help them today.
     Someone, indeed,
     Should fill the need,
     But, should that someone be me?
     I see the need
     To sow good seed,
     Yes, that someone should be me.
 

Someone should go unto the lost today,
Tell of the One who died on Calvary;
Tell them He died to take their sins away,
Tell them He is waiting to set them free.
     Someone should go,
     This much I know;
     But, should that someone be me?
     I see the need
     To sow good seed,
     Yes, that someone should be me.
 

What if you needed someone to help you?
What if from "The Way of Life" you digressed?
Would you then want someone to see you through?
You would need someone; may I now suggest,
     Someone to care,
     Someone to share...
     But should that someone be me?
     I see the need
     To sow good seed,
     Yes, that someone should be me.
