Be Kind
Billy, let’s be kind
Good hearts we’ll find
Let’s renew our minds
We’ll make merry and dine
It will all be fine
Hey!
Do not check the time!
I have no desire to hear the clock chime
There’s no hurry
I’m not sorry
There is too much pain
So many insane
Oh! How pretty the world would be
If truly we can see
The ones around us
And show some love with no fuss
If only we can take a pause
And truly look around us
To see the ones in tears
And the ones battling fears
To love the unloved
And call them, “Beloved”
To give a loaf of bread
To the hungry before they are declared dead
To speak kind words
Regardless of the bitterness in this world
To go the extra mile
With a smile
Even when their hearts are filled with bile
To be kind
Even when the reasons are hard to find
If only
If only
We’ll be agents of goodness
In a world filled with so much darkness
We’ll all be filled with happiness
And chase away dark clouds of sadness
