99. The Good-Cheer Band

1 On we go from day to day,
Driving gloom and care away;
Spreading sunshine o’er the land,
We’re the little Good-Cheer Band.

Refrain:
The Good Cheer Band, the Good Cheer Band,
On we go, on we go, thro’ this pilgrim land;
Singing, smiling all the way,
We are helping, helping Jesus every day.

2 Jesus wants us all to show
Happy hearts as on we go;
So we wear a cheering smile
And are pleasant all the while. [Refrain]

3 Words of love and songs of cheer
Day by day are needed here;
So, if we to Christ are true,
Much of good our band will do. [Refrain]

4 We will do our best each day
Love for Jesus to display;
Then, when life is o’er below,
We shall all to heaven go. [Refrain]
