Is anybody happier, Because you passed his way? Does anyone remember, That you spoke to him today? The day is almost over, And it�s tolling time is through, Is there anyone to utter, Now a kindly word to you? Can you say tonight, in parting, With the day that�s slipping fast, That you helped a single brother, Of the many that you passed? Is a single heart rejoicing, Over what you did or said? Does the man who�s hopes were fading, Now with courage look ahead? Did you waste the day or lose it? Was it well or sorely spent? Did you leave a trail of kindness, Or a scar of discontent? As you close your eyes in slumber, Do you think that God will say, You have earned another tomorrow, By the work you did today? |
