Today

We shall do so much in the years to come, but what have we done today?
We shall give our gold in a princely sum but what did we give today?
We shall lift the heart and dry the tear,
We shall plant a hope in the place of fear
We shall speak the words of love and cheer
But what did we speak today?
What have we done today?

We shall be so kind in the after while
But what have we been today?
We shall bring each lonely life a smile
But what have we brought today?
We shall give to truth a grander birth,
And to steadfast faith a deeper worth,
We shall feed the hungering souls of earth
But whom have we fed today?
What have we done today?

We shall reap such joys in the by and by
But what have we sown today?
We shall build a mansion in the sky
But what have we built today?
What have we done today

We shall do so much in the years to come
But what have we done today?
We shall give our gold in a princely sum
But what did we give today?
'Tis sweet in idle dreams to bask
But here and now do we do our task?
Yes, this is the thing our souls must ask
"What have we done today?"
What have we done today?
