Please Take the Time

So many times we see someone in need Most walk by while they piteously plead Plead for help that may not come Plead for love because they have none So many people just don't take the time To support their fellow man Like it's too much to be kind Too much to give a helping hand To someone who needs it, please take a stand Stand up for the ones who cannot speak for themselves Stand up for those who live their lives in hell They need your help, you may be the one That saves their life, think of your son If he were in need and you not around Would you want others to laugh at his frowns To see him in need and lift not a hand To help him up out of no man's land You'd want strangers to aid him, I know that's true But don't forget help can also come from you We are all in the position to assist I know you know that, but here's the twist In helping others we also help ourselves And that is a great reason in and of itself It feels wonderful to help those in need To sleep soundly knowing you did a good deed So please when you see someone who has not a thing Take time to help, it will make your heart sing
