Refrain: We should love and help each other, Day by day, day by day. We should raise the fallen brother, On the way, on the way. 2 Let us go in scenes of sorrow, Undismayed, undismayed, Trouble's hand on us tomorrow May be laid, may be laid, Let us help while now we can, Ev'ry burden to relieve; As we bless our fellow man So a blessing we'll receive. [Refrain] 3 How the hand of love can lighten All our woe, all our woe, How the gleam of hope can brighten All below, all below, Let us do the kindly deed, Let us speak the loving word; They will spring the precious seed In the garden of the Lord. [Refrain] Languages: English Tune Title: [We should love and help each other]
