Can you say today in parting
With the day that's slipping fast
That you've helped a single person
Of the many, you have passed?
Did you waste the day, or lose it,
Was it well, or poorly spent?
Did you leave a trail of kindness?
Or a tear of discontent?
As you close your eyes in slumber
Do you think that God would say
You have made the world much better
For the life, you lived today?
