A New Year Creed

A New Year Creed

If any little word of ours

Can make one life brighter;

If any little song of ours

Can make one heart, the lighter;

God help us speak that little word

Then take our bit of singing

add drop it in some lonely heart

To set the echoes ringing.

If any little love of ours

Can make one life the sweeter;

If any little care of ours

Can make one step the fleeter;

If any little help may ease

The burden of another;

God give us love and care and strength

To help along each other.

If any little thought of ours

Can make one life the stronger;

If any cheery smile of ours

Can make its brightness longer;

Then let us speak that thought today,

With tender eyes aglowing,

So God may grant that some weary one

shall reap from our glad sowing.
