Traditional

Each day I do a golden deed
By helping those who are in need
My life on earth in but a span
And so I'll do the best I can

Life's evening sun is sinking low
        A few more days and I must go
        To meet the deeds that I have done
        Where there will be no setting sun

To be a child of god each day
My light must shine along the way
I'll sing his praise while ages roll
And strive to help some troubled soul

Chorus

While going down life's weary road
I'll try to lift some traveler's load
I'll try to turn the night to day
Make flowers bloom along the way

Chorus

The only life that will endure
Is one that't kind and good and pure
And so for god I'll take my stand
Aach day I'll lend a helping hand

Chorus
