Text: | Carry Your Cross With a Smile. |
Author: | Ina Duley Ogdon |
Tune: | [Tho’ your heart may be heavy with sorrow and care] |
Composer: | Chas. H. Gabriel |
1. Tho’ your heart may be heavy with sorrow and care,
You may others to gladness beguile,
If a face like the light of the morning you wear,
And carry your cross with a smile!
Chorus:
Carry your cross with a smile,
Carry your cross with a smile;
You may others from sadness to gladness beguile,
If you carry your cross with a smile!
2. Let the well by the wayside that flows unto all
Strength impart for each step of the mile;
Let your faith the great promises often recall,
And carry your cross with a smile! [Chorus]
3. For the work that you faithfully, willingly do,
You shall reap a reward after while;
Only grace in your service can glorify you,
So carry your cross with a smile! [Chorus]
