I Can

I Can

V1

One day my name will be written in stone

I’ll pass from this life of flesh and bone

Memories will fade away

It’s the nature of life and days we live

I ponder and wonder what I can give

So they’ll remember me one day

I’d love to leave ‘em with a smile

What I wouldn’t give to make my short life worthwhile

Chorus

I can give them love. I can be their friend

I can do that all the way to the end

Tell them all He’s waiting on their call

I’ll be kind and help them see their worth

Make the best of all their days on Earth.

And show them He has love for all.

So what if I’m only just one man

I can.

V2.

What can I do to brighten a day

Help another soul to find it’s way

Out of this fallen world of fraud

If time permits I won’t quit

I’ll do my best to help them commit

And spend their time in arms of God.

There’s plenty to give in this life of flesh and bone

Before the day my name’s written in stone

Chorus

I can give them love. I can be their friend

I can do that all the way to the end

Tell them all He’s waiting on their call

I’ll be kind and help them see their worth

Make the best of all their days on Earth.

And show them He has love for all.

So what if I’m only just one man

I can.
