Do you know
Have you ever thought
The damage that words can do
Big or small
However spoken
Turns the joy of day
To the gloom of night
But a word fitly spoken
Said with love in the heart
Can give to each soul
Hope for this day.
And words, just words
Can do so much for thee
Given in grace
With love for the soul
Can lift the burdens away
And the sigh that you hear
From the soul with its care
Is ever so grateful
Though the tears may fall
For the word that you spoke
Was what gave them hope.
