"i'Ve Lived a Good Life, I'Ve Lived a Good Day"

Give me a day, blue skies and sunlight! Give me a night, with clear stars so bright! Give me a garden, rich soil to hoe. Where I can see flowers and vegetables grow! Give me a drink when I'm in great thirst! Give me a child, with healthy new birth! Give me a song, that touches my heart. Give me a "love", that never shall part! Give me a world, where all wars would cease! A world full of "love", a world full of "peace!" Then, I can say.... " I've lived a good life, I've lived a good day!" Amen:
