WISE MOMENT

I must use the moment wisely

For it soon will pass away,

 And be lost to me forever as part of yesterday.

I must exercise compassion,

 Help the fallen to their feet,

Be a friend to the friendless,

Make an empty life complete

The unkind things I do today

May never be undone,

 And friendships that I fail to win

 May nevermore be won.

 I may not have another chance

On bended knee to pray,

And thank God with humble heart

 For giving me this day.
