LESSON 61 SOMETHING EACH DAY

SOMETHING EACH DAY

1. Something each day—a smile—

It is not much to give,

And the little gifts of life

Make sweet the days we live.

The world has weary hearts

That we can bless and cheer,

And a smile for every day

Makes sunshine all the year.

2. Something each day—a word—

We cannot know its power;

It grows in fruitfulness

As grows the gentle flower.

What comfort it may bring

Where all is dark and drear!

For a kind word every day

Makes pleasant all the year.

3. Something each day—a thought—

Unselfish, good, and true,

That aids another's need

While we our ways pursue;

That seeks to lighten hearts,

That leads to pathways clear;

For a helpful thought each day

Makes happy all the year.

4. Something each day—a deed—

Of kindness and of good,

To link [1] in closer bonds [2]

All human brotherhood [3] .

Ah, thus the heavenly will

We all may do while here;

For a good deed every day

Makes blessed all the year.

* * *

[1] link: Each part of a chain.

[2] bonds: Chains.

[3] brotherhood: Friendliness, as between brothers.
