I sat a still in the dark
No more the light I had
I gave it away
I have to say
To one with more the need
So now I stoop down in the deep
Shivering from the cold
But smiling still
Because I know
I showed one how to hold
The summer day
Has gone away
No more for me to have
But others I have given it
Now take away my sad
What more is there to life then give
To one with more a need
To raise one up
Is better still
Then bring one down with me
As life slips by
I count the ones I have helped on up
But then I see a light by me
Now helping me on up
I can not speak
For one like he
Would even look at me
Let alone to take his time
To help the needy
Then he smiles and prompts me on
Urging me to go
And try to lift another soul
And fill there empty hole
