“Right and good”

What is right - what is good
Where do I stand - where have I stood
I straddle the line, and yet I find
I’ve not done all that I could.
What is right
To end the fight
To smile, laugh, and sing
To hold out a hand
And never demand
Of anyone, anything.
What is good
To do what you could
To dance, kiss, and dream
To never lie
Or ever spy
And be always what you seem,
What is right - what is good
Where do I stand - where have I stood
I tell the truth, yet have no proof
That I’ve done all that I could.
