Author: John R. Clements Hymnal: Progressive Sunday School Songs #5 (1923) Topics: Encouragement First Line: Lord, help me encourage my brother today Refrain First Line: Lord, help me encourage my brother today Lyrics: 1 Lord, help me encourage my brother today,
His heart needs the cheer I can bring;
My words may be roses beside a bleak way,
My song may show him how to sing.
Refrain:
Lord, help me encourage my brother today,
Perchance I may have but a smile;
But that may speak louder than words I might say,
And banish the gloom for awhile.
2 Lord, help me encourage my brother today,
There’s minor enough and to spare;
The song shall be major, I’ll teach him to play,
The song shall help banish his care.
Refrain:
Lord, help me encourage my brother today,
Lord, help me to lighten his load,
Help me to encourage my brother, I pray,
Lord, help me to brighten his road. Languages: English Tune Title: [Lord, help me encourage my brother today]
