are the seeds of truly caring
with an innocence that shines
and sees the hidden hope for good is still alive
caring for those who are lost
and seeking to be redeemed
by understanding the challenges
of being human and all that means
still caring for the broken ones
who have stopped believing
and strike out in the darkness
that their tragic fear that reveals
how much they are really needing
someone to feel what the do feel
but still there are candles burning
and ones who wish to find a way
to bring more love into humanity
and to right the wrongs that on society weigh
there are millions who are serving
each in their own way
who try to work with kindness
and to help bring about more good each day
and when we care lets show it
May goodwill guide what we do and say
and May the grace at the heart of caring
help bring compassion to our world I pray
