LIFE
(Tom Paxton)

May the sound of children be your music.
May your blessing be the ones you earn.
May your days be filled with sun.
May you deeply love someone.
May that someone love you in return.

(Chorus:) Life - May yours be long and loving.
Peace - May you enjoy its blessings.
Joy - May it be yours to savor.
Love - May it be yours forever.

May your only sorrows be the small ones.
May they leave you stronger when they go.
May the love of friends be yours.
May you live with open doors.
May you feel the love within you grow. (Chorus)

May your smallest moment be a full one.
May your life be all that it can be.
May you come to love yourself,
And hold that love above yourself,
And hold that love for all the world to see. (Chorus)

[Recorded by Tom Paxton on "Something In My Life," Private Stock Records, PS 200
