Just Show Me How...

I saw this poem in one of my classes and really liked it. A teacher had it posted in the room and the student recited it everyday and learned how to do some of the things listed. My hope is that as teacher's we can aspire our students to fulfill at least one of these lines...

Just Show Me How

If I can do some good today,
If I can serve along life's way,
If I can something helpful say,
Just show me how

If I can right a human wrong,
If I can help to make one strong,
If I can cheer with smile or song,
Just show me how

If I can make a burden less,
If I can aid one in distress,
If I can spread more happiness,
Just show me how

If I can do a kindly deed,
If I can sow a fruitful seed,
If I can help someone in need,
Just show me how

If I can feed a hungry heart,
If I can give a better start,
If I can fill a nobler part,
Just show me how
