JUST PASSING THROUGH

People often say we are Pilgrims, just passing through And if we think about it, this statement is probably true We are here for a little while, but don't known for how long We won't be coming back again, not after we are gone Each tomorrow gives us another chance to choose The path we will follow, as through life we cruise We can follow in the footsteps that Jesus left for us Or we can venture out on our own, if we really must But we can all be better Pilgrims, while passing through If we help spread some kindness, and a little charity too When we meet someone in need, we should try to help Happiness comes from helping others, not just ourselves The history of our pilgrimage will be recorded somewhere And those who journey after us will know we were there Let us leave them a well-worn path, that is clearly defined Marked with acts of generosity, and lots of goodwill signs
