Mlk Song Lyrics - Livin' On A High Note - Mavis Staples

If I can help somebody 

As they pass along 

If I can cheer somebody 

With a word or a song 

If I can show somebody 

That they're traveling wrong 

Then my living 

Will not be in vain. 

If I can do my duty 

As a Christian ought 

If I should sing salvation 

To the world He wrought 

If I can spread the message 

As the Master taught 

Then my living 

Will not be in vain

20 Classic Christmas Lyrics to Celebrate The Holiday Season 

Well it really doesn't matter 

Most of the deeds I've done 

It really doesn't matter 

The prizes I may have won 

I'd like for somebody to say 

I tried to love someone 

When I 

Have to meet my day 

In the crawl for justice 

I helped somebody run 

In the walk for the hungry 

I fed someone 

And in the march for peace 

Tell them I played the drum 

When I 

Have to meet my day 

In the crawl for justice 

I helped somebody run 

In the walk for the hungry 

I fed someone 

And in the march for peace 

Tell them I played the drum 

When I 

Have to meet my day
