36. Keep the Glad Song Ringing in Your Heart

1 Gather up the sunbeams all along life’s way;
Bid the clouds and shadows all depart;
Make a bit of heaven out of ev’ry day—
Keep a glad song ringing in your heart!

Refrain:
Keep a glad song ringing, ever keep it ringing,
Till the gloomy shadows all depart;
Fill the hours with singing, keep a glad song ringing,
Keep it ever ringing in your heart.

2 Share the joys of living with a comrade worn
With his toiling in the busy mart;
Carry rays of sunlight into lives forlorn—
Keep a glad song ringing in your heart. [Refrain]

3 If you lose the pathway to life’s sunny height,
Take new courage for another start;
If the Father leads you it will all come right—
Keep a glad song ringing in your heart. [Refrain]
