Neither Hand Will Hinder

G-iving help to the needy
I-s a command of the Lord; 
N-either hand will hinder
A-iding those who can't afford.

L-ending a hand to the skint
A-lters the serious situation; 
B-ecause of the real love
R-elief is brought to emotion.
A-rms that are wide open
D-eny not the destitute; 
O-ctober fifth early morn, 
R-escue shall bear fruit.

C-are and concern for poor
A-re truly pleasant to see; 
L-et both our hands assist, 
D-oing what can cause ecstasy.
E-ach palm will support, 
R-ight or left doesn't matter; 
O-pen at any clime, 
N-either hand will hinder.
