A SMILE AND A HELPING HAND
When our hearts were hurt and heavy
You came along in time
And gave us what we needed...
A smile and a helping hand.
There were no looks of accusation
No cutting words of scorn
You gave us what we needed
A smile and a helping hand
When the path looked quite impossible
And snares wrapped around our feet
You gave us what we needed
A smile and a helping hand.
We may stand now on the mountaintops
And see for miles around
But, it wasn't always that way,
Then you came along
And gave us what we needed
A smile and a helping hand
