Oh The Things We May Do

Have you lifted a stone from your brother's way,
As he struggled along life's road?
Have you lovingly touched some frail, toilworn hand,
Shared with someone his heavy load?
Have you spoken a word full of hope and cheer?
Have you walked with a slower pace,
'Til the weary of heart who were stumbling on,
Took new courage to run the race?
Have you held up your light thro' the shadows dark,
So that somebody else might see?
Have you lived with the Christ thro' the long, long day,
Gaining many a victory?
Oh, the things we may do, you and I;
Oh, the love we can give if we try;
Just a word or a song as we're passing along,
They will count in the great by and by.

You are still up, little girl. I can tell because your blog just changed. I hope you are ok and that you will sleep enough to feel better. Love.
