47. Smile in God’s Name

1 Smile in God’s name, though dark the sky,
Back of the clouds the sun doth lie,
After the rain comes gleam and glow,
Newness of life to all below.

Refrain:
Smile, smile, smile in God’s name,
Scatter the sunbeams bright;
Wherever you go, whatever you say,
Try to reflect His light.

2 Smile in God’s name, speak words of cheer,
Tell of the Friend so true and dear;
Scatter the sunshine while you may,
Glorify Him each passing day. [Refrain]

3 Smile in God’s name, forget your woes,
Trustingly say my Father knows,
Ever reflecting as you go,
Some of His brightness here below. [Refrain]
