How can we do it?
How do we achieve the seemingly impossible.
How do we believe
that even after all this time, of centuries unfurled,
it’s really not beyond our reach to have a better world.
It isn’t complicated.
It needs no marching band.
The answer’s really simple – lend a helping hand.
SMILE and make the day bright.
SHARE and spread the pleasure.
TOUCH and feel the energy.
GIVE daily without measure.
SEND greetings to the lonely.
DO everything you can.
OPEN up your hearts today.
LEND a helping hand.
In every generation, a few don’t hesitate
To do their very best to misery abate.
We all should take a lesson; from apathy uncurl.
Work with all our hearts and minds
Towards a better world.
SMILE and make the day bright.
SHARE and spread the pleasure.
TOUCH and feel the energy.
GIVE daily without measure.
SEND greetings to the lonely.
DO everything you can.
OPEN up your hearts today.
LEND a helping hand.
