SOMETIMES WE WATCH THE DAYS GO BY,
WISHING THEY WOULD LAST.
MANY TIMES WE WONDER
WHY THE TIME MUST GO SO FAST.

BUT WE CAN STORE IN MEMORY
HAPPY TIMES WE'VE LEFT BEHIND
AND KEEP OUR VERY SPECIAL
DREAMS OF JOYS WE'VE YET TO FIND

 

IF WE DO THE BEST WE CAN
THROUGH EVERY DAY WE LIVE,
AND WE CONSIDER WHAT WE HAVE
AND WHAT WE HAVE TO GIVE

 WE SHOULD TRY TO SEE SOMETHING GOOD,
IN ALL THAT COMES OUR WAY.
THEN WE WILL FIND CONTENTMENT
AT THE END OF EVERY DAY.
