Each day I'll do a golden deed
|
By helping those who are in need
|
My life on earth is but a span
|
And so I'll do the best I can
|
|
Life's even sun is sinking low
|
A few more days and I must go
|
To meet the deeds that I have done
|
Where there will be no setting sun
|
|
To be a child of God each day
|
My light must shine along the way
|
I'll sing His praise while ages roll
|
And strive to help some troubled soul
|
|
The only life that will endure
|
Is one that's kind and good and pure
|
And so for God I'll take my stand
|
Each day I'll lend a helping hand
|
|
I'll help someone in time of need
|
And journey on with rapid speed
|
I'll help the sick and poor and weak
|
And words of kindness to them speak
|
|
While going down life's weary road
|
I'll try to lift some travler's load
|
I'll try to turn the night to day
|
Make flowers bloom along the way.
