If I Can Help Somebody

If I can help somebody as I pass along,

If I can cheer somebody with a word or a song,

If I can show somebody he is travelling wrong,

Then my living shall not be in vain!

Then my living shall not be in vain,

Then my living shall not be in vain!

If I can help somebody as I pass along,

Then my living shall not be in vain!

If I can do my duty as a Christian oft,

If I can bring back beauty to a world up wrought,

If I can spread love's message that the Master taught,

Then my living shall not be in vain!

Then my living shall not be in vain,

Then my living shall not be in vain!

If I can help somebody as I pass along,

Then my living shall not be in vain!
