Someone, Just Anyone

She sat alone in an old peoples' home, lonely, and old and gray;
She wished that someone, just anyone would call on her that day.

                                                              DID YOU?

He lay for days on his hospital bed, the hours were long and hard;
He wished for someone, just anyone would send him a cheery card.

                                                             DID YOU?

He was far from home on foreign soil feeling homesick, lonely and blue;
He wished that someone, just anyone would write him a letter.

                                                             DID YOU?

She felt a stranger, that little bride, her husband with her to church came;
She wished that someone, just anyone would stop and call her by name.

                                                              DID YOU?

Her loved one had died, a few weeks ago - All sad and broken hearted she sat;
She wish that someone, just anyone would come to her house and chat.

                                                              DID YOU?

That matter of Christian service -- we are living it day by day;
When we help someone, just anyone as we walk along life's way.

                                                              DID YOU?
