"If you have shared another's load

Or eased another's pain,

If you have soothed a troubled soul

Life has not been in vain.

If you have cheered another's heart

Or made a sad face smile,

If you have calmed another's fear

Your life has been worthwhile.

If you have said a tender word

Or dried another's tears,

If you have spread your share of love

Then you've been needed here.

If you have lent a helping hand

Through times of care and strife,

If you have done a little good

You've made the most of life."
