Just do your best

Just do your best
At whatever you do
Try to make things better
For all those you can

Life is a long journey
There are perils along the way
Really try to make a difference
Helping all those you can

We have the influence we have
It is often less than we need
Convince others to see your way
And help all those you can

We often must focus
We concentrate on our plan
Hoping others will collaborate
The results help all those you can

When we take a break
Whether a minute or a decade
We still do what is right
Which helps all that we can

We must have true patience
We should be as gentle as possible
There are many ways to do things
Which helps all that we can

Just do your best
At whatever you do
Try to make things better
For all those you can

Life is a long journey
There are perils along the way
Really try to make a difference
Helping all those you can

Just do your best
At whatever you do
Try to make things better
For all those you can

Life is a long journey
There are perils along the way
Really try to make a difference
Helping all those you can

Bringing peace on to one another
Avoiding harming as we go
Getting things done in time
Helping all those you can

Just do your best
At whatever you do
Try to make things better
For all those you can

Life is a long journey
There are perils along the way
Really try to make a difference
Helping all those you can

With a touch of forgiveness
With a touch of compassion
With a touch of true caring
With a touch of just loving

Love love
Love love, it’s true
hey uh, hey oh

I need some support, too

I need some support
I need some space
I hope you understand
I am fragile like life

People forget to care
People can cause strife
People need to chill
People should create

I want to be making
I want to be trying
I might need some help
I hope you aren’t crying

People are loved
People are expected
People as much as they get
People should love

I am being helpful
I may seem too slow
I may need a boost
I try to make love so

People can be helpful
People can really care
People should be careful
People should so dare

Our world is so precious
Our people are fragile
Our love is so needed
Our love is what heals

Help me be productive
Help me to help you
Help one another
Help is the best to do

I need some support
I need some space
I hope you understand
I am fragile like life

People forget to care

People need to chill

I hope you aren’t crying

People are loved

Help one to be productive
Help one to help you
Help one another
Help is the best to do

Love love

You are my hero

You are my hero
What you do is so fine
You raise me from low
When I think of your kind

You fight for another day
You want to laugh and play
You are like the forest tree
Flexing in the winds you be

Though pain and suffering is
Not as pleasant as show biz
You manage a smile for me
Your happiness is my key

To open the lock of joy
Like the buzz of a hummingbird
There is nothing really coy
Of your uplifting word

I love to see the mountains
Both the high and the low
Your effort erases sins
Of me wherever I go

It doesn’t matter where you are
Thinking of you makes me go far
I know you try so much
It is courageous as such

You are my hero
You make so many to go
On towards their goals
And enjoying their roles

You are my hero
When I think of you
Wherever I might go
Your struggle can do

You are my hero
Please know I love you
The way is as I show
By the things I try to do
I hope you can feel
The best any moment
Because my love is real
I feel the love you have sent

Do the best you can
That’s what brings good
We are your steady fan
We love you as we should

You are my hero
You bring me up from the low
Wherever your love may go
Your love will really show

Love love
Love love, it’s true
hey uh, hey oh
