Good Will ‎#29

29. Cheery Be

1 Cheery be,
Happy be,
Glad and joyous all the day;
Shed thy light,
Beaming bright,
Like a sunny ray.

Refrain:
Tell the gladness you have found,
Swell the praises all around;
Jesus lives, and He loves,
Such as you and me.

2 If you will,
You may fill,
Others with the joy you bring;
As you go,
You may show
Where the waters spring. [Refrain]

3 Look above,
There is love,
Jesus is the fountain head;
At its brink,
Deeply drink,
Thirst no more, he said. [Refrain]
