Words and thoughts are precious
Guard them with your tongue.
Never speak an unkind word,
If only meant in fun.
Whisper a kind word today
In somebody's ear.
Just a word could change that day
To happiness from fear.
Friendship helps the world go round.
If people smile when they meet;
A little chat - a cup of tea
Could change the wrongs to right.
So as we live through every day
Kind words are all we need to say.
Oh what a loving world it could be,
Better by far for you and for me.
