I have a clean, soft bed on which
to sleep
I have a table set with gracious
things.
How can. I pray the Lord “my
soul to keep,’’
How can my heart lift up on
joyous wings ■
While there are those about me
in the night
W'ho toss on filthy rag.s and
cannot rest.
Who have no food, no raiment,
and no light?
How can I sleep unless I do my
best
'R» Jfcg^and comfort them, and
can I
Be deemed a follower of the
Christ until
I heed humanity’s unbroken cry
And move to fe'd llie hungry,
heal the ill?
God help me keep rememl)ering—
help me to see
How great is my responsibility.
