20. Help the World Along

1 Help the world along with your words of cheer,
Ev’ry hour of ev’ry day;
With a sunny smile weary hours beguile,
Till the clouds have rolled away.

Chorus:
Help the world along, help the world along,
There is surely something you can do;
With a smile or song help to conquer sin and wrong,—
Be willing, watchful, brave and true.

2 Help the world along with your zeal and strength,
Make it better, brighter grow,
Send a ray of light like the sunshine bright,
Thro’ the darkness as you go. [Chorus]

3 Help the world along with your mind and skill,
Some will braver, nobler stand;
Valiantly and true ev’ry duty do,—
Lend a willing, helping hand. [Chorus]

4 Help the world along with your deeds of love,
And the harvest you shall see,
For, when life is done and the guerdon won,
Yours a crown of life shall be. [Chorus]
