Hate Dies, Love Arrives
Hate Dies, Love Arrives

Happiness, What is happiness
When I smile at others,
And they smile back at me
That is happiness.
Your smile can change my mind
When anger wants to take control
It can loosen the tension I feel
Deep down in my soul.
When I smile at others
It affects the way they act
Quite often I’ll discover
That they are smiling back.
My smile sends out a message
About the love I share today
My love gets stronger
Each and every time that I pray
My smile is contagious
When it’s spread around
My smile can lift you up
And will never let you down
My smile is like a package
As if it’s fragile
I don’t know about tactics
But I know about smiles
My smile is passed along
As I travel through time,
I can’t help to eliminate friction
But I can help your mind
Is my smile a test
I don’t know
But my smile is the best
Which I don’t have to express.
When I want to bless someone
If only for a while
I show the love within my heart
By giving them a smile.
So with all my heart I smile
Therefor love arrives
And then whom I don’t smile
The hate arrives.
