Let Us Be Cheerful

LET US BE CHEERFUL
52810

Whining and crying
Goodness defying
Sets all the world sighing
In garments of woe

Smiling and singing,
Happiness bringing,
Sets all the world ringlug
With joy and good cheer,

Then let us be cheerful,
Helping the tearful,
The timid and fearful
Along the rough way

Angels will guard us
God will reward us,
All heaven accord us
A robe and a crown
-Ida E MacDonald
