I WANT TO KNOW
I want to know, when day is done,
That life has been worth living –
That I have brought somebody joy
Through kind unselfish living.
I want to feel, when evening falls
And shadows quickly lengthen,
That I have made somebody glad,
Some weakness I have strengthened.
I want to know, that come what may
I’ve left some cheer and gladness;
I want to feel, at close of day,
I’ve banished someone’s sadness.
I want to feel at close of day,
That someone’s cares were lighter;
Because of kindness I have done,
May someone’s life be brighter.
