I want to know, when the day is done.

That life has been worth living.

That I have brought somebody joy

Through kindness and unselfish living.

I want to feel, when the evening falls

and shadows quickly lengthen

That I have made somebody smile.

I want to know that come what may.

I've lifted someone's sadness

I want to feel at eventide,

that someone's cares were lighter.

Because of kindness I have done,

may someone's life be brighter.
