A Beautiful Life — OpenPsalm

Verse 1 Each day I'll do
a golden deed,
By helping those
who are in need,
My life on earth
is but a span,
And so I'll do
the best I can,

Verse 2 To be a child
of God each day,
My light must shine
along the way;
I'll sing His praise
while ages roll
And strive to help
some troubled soul,

Verse 3 The only life
that will endure,
Is one that's kind
and good and pure;
And so for God
I'll take my stand,
Each day I'll lend
a helping hand,

Verse 4 I'll help someone
in time of need,
And journey on
with rapid speed;
I'll help the sick
and poor and weak,
And words of kind
ness to them speak,

Verse 5 While going down
life's weary road,
I'll try to lift
some traveler's load;
I'll try to turn
the night to day,
Make flowers bloom
along the way,

Refrain Life's evening sun
is sinking low,
A few more days
and I must go
To meet the deeds
that I have done,
Where there will be no setting sun,
