Whose heart deserves to glow?
Whose soul deserves to shine?
Have I been good enough
For this soul of mine?

Have I helped as many
From all the souls I've met,
To earn a pair of wings
And a halo yet?

Each day I shall work harder
For this is my job on earth...
And I'm told it is the secret
To give an angel birth.
