The Modern Hymnal ‎#301

301. Smile

1 Smile when your heart is all troubled,
Smile when you’re weary and blue;
Smile, for the Savior is guiding,
Smile, for the Savior is true.

Refrain:
Smile, smile, smile, and the world will grow brighter,
Sorrow and sighing you may beguile;
Smile, smile, burdens of life will grow lighter,
If you trust Jesus and smile, smile, smile.

2 Smile when the tempest is raging,
Smile in your battle with sin;
Smile and your courage will strengthen,
Smiling will help you to win. [Refrain]

3 Smile when your burdens are heavy,
Smile when you’re longing for rest;
Never give up in the conflict,
Smiling is always the best. [Refrain]

4 Smile and give others your sunshine,
Smile as you meet with the throng,
Smile and the world will smile with you,
Greet you with gladness and song. [Refrain]
