THE WORLD NEEDS by ANONYMOUS

First Line: A LITTLE MORE KINDNESS AND A LITTLE LESS CREED
Last Line: AND FEWER ON GRAVES AT THE END OF THE STRIFE

A little more kindness and a little less creed,
A little more giving and a little less greed;
A little more smile and a little less frown,
A little less kicking a man when he's down;
A little more "we" and a little less "I,"
A little more laugh and a little less cry;
A few more flowers on the pathway of life,
And fewer on graves at the end of the strife.
