A CHEERFUL song for every day,
And not for glad days only;
A song to clear a misty way,
And soothe a heart that's lonely;
A song that's not too late to bring
Joy unto one that may not sing.
A song whose mission 'tis to find
And cheer the place of sorrow,
And have its message glad and kind,
Fulfilled before to-morrow—
Whether the skies be blue or gray,
A cheerful song for every day.
