作曲 : Anderson, Crosby
I'm caught up in the push and shove 
The daily grind, burning time, spinning wheels 
I wonder what 
I'm doing here 
Day to day. year to year, standing still 
Somewhere there's a teacher with a heart that never quits 
Staying after school to help some inner city kids 
A mother who's a volunteer, a soldier 
In the fight 
I can't help'but ask myself when 
I lay down at night 
Did I make a difference in somebody's life? 
What hurts did 
I heal? What wrongs did 
I right? Did 
I raise my voice in defense of the truth? 
Did I lend my hand to the destitute? 
When my race 
Is run, when my song is sung 
Will I have to wonder, did 
I make a difference? 
Did I make a difference? 
I've been, working hard to make a living 
And forgetting what true living is 
Taking more than giving, something's missing 
Lord, how long can 
I go on like this? 
There's a lonely old man down the street 
And I should be ashamed 
I've never been to see him, 
I don't even know his name 
There's kids without their supper in my own neighborhood 
Will I look back someday and say that 
I did all 
I could? Did 
I make a difference in somebody's life? 
What hurts did 
I heal? What wrongs did 
I right? Did 
I raise my voice in defense of the truth? 
Did I lend my hand to the destitute? 
When my race is run, when my song is sung 
Will I have to wonder, did 
I make a difference? 
Did I make a difference? 
When my race is run, when my song is sung 
Will I have to wonder, did 
I make a difference? 
Did I make a difference? 
When my race is run, when my song is sung 
Will I have to wonder, did 
I make a difference? 
Did I make a difference? 
Did I make a difference?
