The Kindness of Strangers
Embracing Humanity: The Power of Unseen Bonds
Lyrics
I'm thankful for the kindness of strangers
I express gratitude for the benevolence of unfamiliar individuals.
Kindness upon which I depend
This benevolence is crucial for my well-being.
Nothing to gain, they do it the same
Acts of kindness are done without expecting anything in return.
A stranger you may one day call friend
A person you currently don't know might become a friend in the future.
I'd never been so deep in danger
I had never faced such imminent peril before.
I didn't know which way to go
I was lost and confused, unsure of the right direction.
Then someone I knew not even from Adam
Someone I didn't even know (not even from Adam) came to my aid.
Showed me a path that led straight home
That person guided me on a path that led me back home.
Warm like a soft fire
The kindness felt comforting, like a gentle fire.
Lifted my spirits higher
This kindness elevated my mood and emotions.
I might bend, but I will not break
I may face challenges, but I won't be broken.
In the kindness of strangers
The benevolence of strangers supports and strengthens me.
If you should find someone in trouble
If you encounter someone in distress,
If you should hear somebody's plea
If you hear someone's plea for help,
Think of the times you've been shown a kindness
Recall the kindness you've received and pay it forward.
And be the stranger someone needs
Be the stranger who provides the help someone needs.
Warm like a soft fire
Similar to a comforting fire, provide warmth to others.
Lift up their spirits higher
Lift their spirits higher through your benevolence.
They might bend, but they will not break
They may face challenges, but they won't be broken.
In the kindness of a stranger
In the kindness of a stranger, strength is found.
We all bend, but we will not break
We all face challenges, but with the kindness of strangers, we endure.
In the kindness of strangers
Collectively, we withstand difficulties through the compassion of unfamiliar individuals.
