If you sit down at set of sun, And count the acts that you have done, And, counting, find One self-denying act, one word That eased the heart of him who heard, One glance most kind That fell like sunshine where it went, Then you may count that hour well spent.

But if, through all the livelong day, You've cheered no heart by yea or nay; If, through it all, You've nothing done, which you can trace, That brought the sunshine to one face; No act most small That helped some soul and nothing cost, Then count that day as worse than lost.
