Be a Cheering Light

As thro’ life you jour­ney

Be a cheer­ing light

Like the sun at morn­ing

Beautiful and bright;

Shine in gloomy plac­es

As you pass them by

Cheer the lives that sor­row

Gladden those who sigh.

Daily

hour­ly

be a cheer­ing light

Glowing

gleam­ing

beau­ti­ful and bright;

Like a bea­con burn­ing in the night

Glowing

gleam­ing

beau­ti­ful and bright.

Like a bea­con burn­ing

On a hill at night

You may shed around you

Happiness and light;

Try to help the wea­ry

Thro’ the drea­ry days

Try to guide the way­ward

From for­bid­den ways.

Steadily and bright­ly

Shining day by day

You will scatter bless­ings

All along the way;

Less of care and sor­row

Many hearts will know

If you gleam and glist­en

Everywhere you go.
