Why I Serve
When life knocks you down,
It is nice to have someone to lift you up.
When people darken your day,
It is nice to have someone to help you shine.
When circumstances make you feel less than,
It is nice to have someone appreciate your worth.
When you feel you have no fight left in you,
It is nice to have someone fight for you.
For all of these reasons,
And so many more,
This is why I serve!
For the unappreciated,
For the underappreciated,
And for the downtrodden,
This is why I serve!
