The smallest good deed is better by far Than the grandest good itention. We'll never get much accomplished in life If our good deeds are only just mentioned.
One dollar that's given is worth much more Than merely a promise of twenty. For a dollar will buy a few little things, But a promise, that won't buy any.
If we always intend to visit the sick And don't ever put it in action, What we plan to do won't help matters much, And surely won't bring satisfaction.
So do what you can and give what you can To help your less fortunate neighbor. And you can be sure that you will receive A very great price for your labor.
