Salt of the Earth

S-he's the salt of the earth, 
A-lways there to rescue; 
L-onging to help anyone, 
L-et she prove it to
Y-ou.

S-he's the salt of the earth, 
A-lways there to lend a hand; 
N-ot for a time will she ignore
T-he hopeless and poor man.
I-'m awed by the salt of the earth, 
A-s she supports all the way; 
G-iving aid to humanity
O-n May fifteenth sunny day.

S-he's the salt of the earth, 
A-lways there to offer light; 
N-ight shadows disappear
T-o set everything aright.
O-pening the heart of man, cleaning up the grime and dirt; 
S-he invites to show the truth, she's the salt of the earth.
