If I can stop one heart for breaking, I should not live in vain. If I can ease one life the aching Or cool one pain, Or help one fainting robin Unto its nest again, I shall not live in vain. If I can share my love for Jesus, I should not live in vain. If my faith can shine a light for others, Sunshine or rain, Or bring us all together As we celebrate His name, I shall not live in vain. If we can do God’s word around us, We shall not live in vain. If we let the love He gives us daily Our hearts inflame And join together At His Holy Feast of grapes and grain, We shall not live in vain.
