By helping those who are in need

My life on earth is but a stem

And so I'll do the best I can

Chorus:

Life's evening sun is sinking low

A few more days and I must go

To meet the deeds that I have done

Where there will be no setting sun

To be a child of God each day

My light is just along the way

I'll sing His praise while the ages roll

And strive to help some troubled soul

Chorus:

While going down life's weary road

I'll try to lift some traveler's load

I'll try to turn the night to day

Make flowers bloom along the way

Chorus:
