Did you give him a lift,? He’s a
brother of Man
And bearing about all the burden he
can.
Did you give him a smile? He was
’downcast and blue,
And the smile would have helped him
to battle it through
Did you give him your hand? He was
slipping down hill
And tlie world, so i fancied, was using
him ill.
Did you give him a word? Did you
show him the road,
Or did you Just let him go on with
his load?
Did you help him along? He’s a sin-
ner like you,
But the grasp of your hand might
have carried him through,
Did you bid him good cheer? Just a
word and a smile
Were what he most needed that last
weary mile.
Do you know what he bore in
burden of cares
That is every man’s load, and
sympathy shares?
Did you try to find out what he need-
oil from you,
Or did you just leave him to battle
it through?
Do you know what it means to bo los-
ing (lie fight
When a lift just In time might set
everything right?
Do you know what it means just the
clasp of a hand
When a man’s borne about all a man
ought to stand?
Did you ask what it was, why tlie
quivering lip
And the glistening tears down the
pale cheek ttiat slip?
Were you brother of his when the time
came to be?
Did you offer to help him, or didn’t
you see?
