Today (Evening Song)

(Thomas A.Dorsey)



Have I given anything today?

Have I helped some needed soul on the way?

From the dawn till setting sun, have I wounded anyone?

Shall I weep for what I've done today?



Oh today, oh the day, oh the day

Have I failed some greater flame on the way

Just to know I've done my best as I go to take my rest

Let my name be blessed today.



Have I made some person glad today?

Did I help someone who had a mortal day?

Did I cancel with the sad try to make some poor heart glad

Answer wisdom what I had today.



Oh today, oh the day, oh the day

Have I failed some greater flame on the way

Just to know I've done my best as I go to take my rest

Let my name be blessed today...
