O.K., Guest:
These are the words to Help For The Needy. I'll also post the lyrics up above..
Have I given anything today? Have I helped some needy soul on my way? Just to know I've done my best Let me go home to take my rest Then my name, my name, my name be written there today
CHORUS:
Today (oh today) Today (oh today) Have I helped some needy soul on my way Just to know I've done my best Let me go home to take my rest Then my name, my name, my name be written there today
Have I given anything today? Have I helped some needy soul on my way? From the storm to the sun Have I wounded anyone? To weep a weep a weep or worry Lord, today
The way the song is sung is that the tenor sing the first verse, and the bass sings the second, with an interchange of each verse a couple of times. The harmony answers (oh today), but otherwise just keeps rhythm and harmony going with do-doots. We learned the song from the Fairfield Four, as I mentioned above.
