YOU AND ONLY YOU

Is anybody happier
Because YOU passed this way?
Does anyone remember
That YOU spoke to them today?

------------ --------- --------- ----

The day is almost over,
And its toiling time is through,
Is there anyone to utter
Now a kindly word of
YOU?

------------ --------- ------
Can
YOU say tonight in parting
With the day that's slipping fast ...
That YOU helped a single person
Of the many that you passed?

------------ --------- --------- --------- --------- -

Is a single heart rejoicing
Over what
YOU did or said?
Does the one whose hopes were fading
Now with courage look ahead?

------------ --------- --------- --------- --------- -----

Did
YOU waste the day or use 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 one more tomorrow
By what you did today?"
