I Am a Bucket Filler

I am a bucket filler

This is who I am

I try to think of others

And do the best I can

I lend a helping hand

Let someone know they're not alone

And if the kind words that I say

Brighten someone's day

I'm happy 'cause I know

Yes, I am a giver, not a taker

Yes, I am a builder, not a breaker

Filling buckets up, overflowing hearts

This is who I am

I am a bucket filler

This is what I do

Every time I look

I look to see the best in you

If your bucket's empty

I make an effort on my part

To look beyond the surface

And see what's in your heart

Because yes, I am a giver, not a taker

Yes, I am a builder, not a breaker

Filling buckets up, overflowing hearts

This is who I am

Sometimes it isn't easy

And I struggle just to know

How to fill another's bucket

When my own bucket is low

I stop and take a breath

And try to listen if I can

To the voice inside that reminds me who I am

We are bucket fillers

This is who we are

We fill each other up

As we go reaching for the stars

We are bucket fillers

And here's the magic of it all

When we help each other

Every one of us stands tall

So yes, I am a giver, not a taker

Yes, I am a builder, not a breaker

Filling buckets up, overflowing hearts

This is who I am

Filling buckets up, overflowing hearts

I will do my part

'Cause this is who I am
