In the quiet moments of the night,
When the world feels heavy and cold,
Compassion’s gentle light,
Warms the heart and soothes the soul.
A hand that reaches out,
To lift another from despair,
Eyes that see beyond doubt,
And offer kindness rare.
Compassion is a balm,
For wounds both seen and unseen,
It speaks in tones of calm,
And keeps our spirits keen.
So let us cherish this gift,
And spread it far and wide,
For in this world adrift,
Compassion is our guide.
