Act, act in the living present
Take someone by the hand
Lead them to a better life
Show them how to work the land
Help them to plant some seeds
Reach a higher plateau
Walk with others into the fields
Sharing all that they've come to know
Act, act in the living present
Share with others the tie that binds
Open up their knowledge to explore
Broaden the avenues within their mind
Yes, Act, act in the living present
Enjoy each and every day
Helping others to learn and know
Life grows deeper with love along the way
