Alexander's Hymns No. 4 ‎#201

201. Good Cheer Song

1 Everybody needs a little sunshine,
Everybody needs a loving Friend;
Ev’rybody sometime gets discouraged,
Longs for kindness you could well extend.

Refrain:
Just a little sunshine brightening up the way,
Just a little good cheer scattered every day,
Bringing heaven nearer,
Making duty clearer,
Making life seem drearer,
While we toil or play.

2 Everybody needs a little kindness,
Everybody needs to know the Lord;
Needs the strength that faith in Christ can give them,
Needs the blessed light of His pure word. [Refrain]

3 Everybody needs the life abundant,
Needs the health and happiness of heaven,
Needs the blood of Christ to cleanse and save them,
Needs the Holy Spirit God has given. [Refrain]
