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 shelter somebody who's far away from home
Then my living shall not be in vain
Then my living shall not be in vain
If I can be a person, like a person
If I can spread love’s message, which is “Learn, but also taught”
If I can nurture someone in this world up wrought
Then my living shall not be in vain
Then my living shall not be in vain
Then my living shall not be in vain
