What do you think this poem is about?

IF IT'S WITHIN MY REACH

If it's within my reach
I will wipe tears in every heart
A light in their eyes

Shelter to the homeless;
A roof in rainy night

Affection to the afflicted;
Smile to the broken spirit

Son to childless families;
Laughter in their lungs

Comforter of the widows;
Nightingale to soften their sleep

A shoulder to the weak;
Like lion in zion

Hope to the despair;
A light in their tunnel

Dead to erase;
Pain to ease,
Dark cloud to sunny sky,
And certainly,
Chaos to peace!
