YOU CAN REACH OUT WITH A HEART OF LOVE
You can reach out with a heart of love
Make a difference in this world
Every single boy and girl take a stand, play a part
No matter how small you feel
No matter how huge the task
You can make a difference
Exactly where you are
And every journey starts oh
With just one step
And even the greatest life began
With a single breath
And when you get to heaven
And God says well, well done
You gave me clothes and food
When I just had none
And you’ll say when oh Lord
I did not see You there?
He’ll say, what you did for the least of men
You really did for Me
