32. Whom Have You Helped Today?

1 Many are anxiously seeking today,
For wisdom to guide them aright;
Almost discouraged they grope on the way,
Like wanderers in the night.

Refrain:
Whom have you helped today?
Whom have you helped today?
Whose cares have you lightened?
Whose face have you brightened?
Whose tears have you wiped away?
Whom have you helped today?
Whom have you helped today?
Your heart confessing,
Have you the blessing—
Say, whom have you helped today?

2 Many have burdens of sorrow to bear,
And crosses you never have known;
Trembling, they halt on the brink of despair,
Dejected, unsought, alone! [Refrain]

3 Many around you are sorely in need
Of words you might easily speak;
Patiently, earnestly, mutely they plead
With you for the aid they seek. [Refrain]

4 Only a word, as you hurry along!
Who knows of the good it may do;
Spoken in love, God will make it a song
Of blessing and peace to you. [Refrain]
