If you have hard work to do,

    Do it now.

Today the skies are clear and blue,

Tomorrow clouds may come in view,

Yesterday is not for you;

    Do it now.

If you have a song to sing,

    Sing it now.

Let the notes of gladness ring

Clear as song of bird in spring;

Let every day some music bring;

    Sing it now.

If you have kind words to say,

    Say them now.

Tomorrow may not come your way,

Do a kindness while you may,

Loved ones will not always stay;

    Say them now.

If you have smile to show,

    Show it now.

Make hearts happy, roses grow,

Let the friends around you know

The love you have before they go;

    Show it now.
