We cannot all be famous
Or be listed in “Who’s Who”,
But every person, great or small,
Has important work to do.
Or be listed in “Who’s Who”,
But every person, great or small,
Has important work to do.
For seldom do we realize
The importance of small deeds,
Or to what degree of greatness
Unnoticed kindness leads.
The importance of small deeds,
Or to what degree of greatness
Unnoticed kindness leads.
For it’s not the big celebrity
In a world of fame and praise,
But it’s doing unpretentiously
In an undistinguished way.
In a world of fame and praise,
But it’s doing unpretentiously
In an undistinguished way.
The work that God assigned to us,
Unimportant as it seems,
That makes our task outstanding,
And brings reality to dreams.
Unimportant as it seems,
That makes our task outstanding,
And brings reality to dreams.
So do not sit and idly wish
For wider, new dimensions
Where you can put into practice,
Your many good intentions.
For wider, new dimensions
Where you can put into practice,
Your many good intentions.
