A GOOD CREED, by ANONYMOUS First Line: If any little word of ours Last Line: Shall reap from our glad sowing Subject(s): Kindness | ||||||||
If any little word of ours Can make one life the brighter; If any little song of ours Can make one heart the lighter; God help us speak that little word, And take our bit of singing And drop it in some lonely vale To set the echoes ringing. If any little love of ours Can make one life the sweeter; If any little care of ours Can make one step the fleeter; If any little help may ease The burden of another; God give us love and care and strength To help along each other. If any little thought of ours Can make one life the stronger; If any cheery smile of ours Can make its brightness longer; Then let us speak that thought today, With tender eyes aglowing, So God may grant some weary one Shall reap from our glad sowing. | Discover our Poem Explanations and Poet Analyses!Other Poems of Interest...FOR THE SAKE OF STRANGERS by DORIANNE LAUX A CONSIDERABLE SPECK by ROBERT FROST BUT I DO NOT NEED KINDNESS by GREGORY NUNZIO CORSO HER DILEMMA; IN CHURCH by THOMAS HARDY TIS A LITTLE JOURNEY by ANONYMOUS |
