Thou wilt reach tomorrow, perchance, a smoother road.

Courage, brother, courage! For just beyond the sight,
At the highway’s turning, waits thy heart’s delight.
2 Look a little closer, brother, at thy way;
See the bright-faced blossoms that smile at thee today. [Refrain]
3 Look a little higher, at the prospect sweet,
And forget the roughness that lies beneath thy feet. [Refrain]
4 Listen, brother, listen! as you plod along,
Faintly from the distance there comes a happy song. [Refrain] Languages: English Tune Title: UFA
Courage, Brother, Courage
