What Have We Done Todaya

We shall do so much in the years to come,
But what have we done today2
We shall give our gold in princely sum.
But what did we give today2
We shall lift the heart and dry the tear.
We shall plant hope in the place of fear.
We shall speak the words Of love and cheer;
But what did we speak today?
We shall be so kind in the after-a-while.
But what have we been today7
We shall bring TO each lonely life smile,
But what have we brought today2
We shall give to truth a grander birth.
And TO steadfast faith deeper worth.
We shall feed the hungering souls OF earth.
But whom have we fed today2
We shall reap such Joys in the by and by.
But what have we sown today2
We shall build US mansions in the sky.
But what have we built today2
'Tis sweet in idle dreams 10 bask,
But here and now we do our task.
Yes, this is the thing our souls must ask,
What have we done today2"
