Caring And Sharing


Caring and sharing are two words
You don't hear much today
People seem to be content
To just go their own way
Not caring how others feel
Or the needs that are there
Their attitude seems to be
I really just don't care

I'll look after my own
Let them handle theirs
They don't see the hardships
They don't see the tears
They won't go the extra
To help someone in need
They walk their own way
The signs they do not heed

The Lord He is not pleased
He expects His people to be
Kind, loving and giving
The very same as He
This world is hurting badly
The needs are everywhere
God is looking for people
Who will show they care

If you see someone today
Who is burdened down with care
Don't you too be selfish
With that person share
Live to please your God
In everything you do
Allow the world to see His love
Flowing forth from you

Give to those in need
Encourage those who are down
Put a smile upon your face
Don't always wear a frown
Show them God is real
He cares about their need
Be a friend to all mankind
And you'll be blessed indeed.
