Analysis of How Well?
How well do you care for your people?
How well do you care for your world?
Are your own strength and needs
Supported so well
That it helps those about whom you care?
Tend to yourself in adequate way
Be strong and able to fend
To help all your family to live and be free
And surely to help every friend.
Breathe life into your surroundings
Bring life to prosperity and find,
That the life you bring to your neighbors
Is the hope and the help to survive.
How well do you fight for a happier world?
How well do you do this?
How well?
