Author: Fanny Crosby Hymnal: The Cyber Hymnal #10353 Meter: 8.7.8.7 D First Line: Let our hearts be always cheerful Refrain First Line: Always cheerful, always cheerful! Lyrics: 1 Let our hearts be always cheerful;
Why should murmuring enter there,
When our kind and loving Father
Makes us children of His care?
Refrain:
Always cheerful, always cheerful!
Sunshine all around we see;
Full of beauty is the path of duty,
Cheerful may we always be.
2 With His gentle hand to lead us,
Should the powers of sin assail,
He has promised grace to help us;
Never can His promise fail. [Refrain]
3 When we turn aside from duty,
Comes the path of doing wrong;
And a shadow, creeping o’er us,
Checks the rapture of our song. [Refrain]
4 Oh! the good are always happy,
And their path is ever bright;
Let us heed the blessèd counsel,
Shun the wrong and love the right. [Refrain] Languages: English Tune Title: BRASÍLIA
Always Cheerful
