A Stranger's Kindness - Bao Binh
She stepped down from the car that day
A million thoughts just blew away
She saw a man, a heart-worn thing
But saw the strength that lived within
His story told, her heart did plead
A love so true for heaven's sake
She reached inside her little purse
To ease his pain, to lift the curse
Sometimes a hand is all we need
To plant the smallest fragile seed
A stranger's kindness out of the blue
Can heal the wounds and pull us through
And in that moment, side by side
She gave him hope, she gave him pride
He tried to say, "No, I can't take"
But she insisted for love's sake
It wasn't much, but it would do
A little dress, a life anew
She didn't know the life she touched
A stranger's gift that meant so much
But in his eyes, the world was bright
A spark that flickered through the night
Sometimes a hand is all we need
To plant the smallest fragile seed
A stranger's kindness out of the blue
Can heal the wounds and pull us through
And in that moment, side by side
She gave him hope, she gave him pride
And though the world may turn away
The kindness lingers, it finds its way
In every heart, in every soul
The giving spirit makes us whole
Sometimes a hand is all we need
To plant the smallest fragile seed
A stranger's kindness out of the blue
Can heal the wounds and pull us through
And in that moment, side by side
She gave him hope, she gave him pride
