A Wholesome Medicine

A wholesome medicine is Cheer, And Hope a tonic strong; He conquers all who conquers Fear, And shall his days prolong.
A happy heart, a cheerful lip, Contagious health bestow; As honey-bees their sweetness sip From fragrant flowers that blow.
Who lives in Love's enchanted hall, Where Fear nor Sorrow stalk, The melodies of Peace o'er all Shall hear, though men may mock.
A thousand years are as a day To him who trusts the Truth; Who shuns the path of Error's way, Attains perennial youth.
Sing on, sing on, forever sing And hope, despite thy lot; From heaven thy fervent heart shall wring The fate thy prayer hath sought.
Let cheerful thoughts prevail among The sons of men alway, And sighs shall change to Love's sweet song, And night to golden day. — Selected.
