Goodness and mercy
will be in my wake
in the places I have been
after I’ve gone through

Goodness and mercy
will be the result
of my presence
like flowers blooming in footprints

All the days of my life
So I shall dwell
in the happy certainty
not only of having done no harm
but of blessing

I shall not want
for all my hope
is thus fulfilled.
