Lifeline
For us there may come a time
when you or I will need
someone to lend a helping hand
when all around is greed
So everything we do today,
all free gifts we give,
a coin placed in a stranger’s hand
may help someone to live
Don’t always be so ready
those with less than you to scorn
For tonight we’ll eat plenty,
but who know what brings the morn
