Wear a smile for Jesus, as you pass along, Cheer this world of sorrow with a happy song; If a cloud should lower, hiding all the blue, Smiles will rift the gloom and let the sunshine thro’.

Wear a smile for Jesus, speak a word of cheer; Many hearts are sighing ’neath their burdens here; Like the sparkling dewdrops on the drooping flow’rs, Smiles will cheer and brighten e’en the darkest hours.

Wear a smile for Jesus—do not stop to weep; Tho’ some disappointment o’er your pathway creep, Smiles will lighten labor, soothe and banish care; Scatter freely, then, your brightest ev’rywhere.

Chas. H. Gabriel

1856 - 1932 Person Name: Charles Hutchinson Gabriel Hymnal Title: The Cyber Hymnal Composer of "[Wear a smile for Jesus, as you pass along]" in The Cyber Hymnal Pseudonyms: C. D. Emerson, Charlotte G. Homer, S. B. Jackson, A. W. Lawrence, Jennie Ree ============= For the first seventeen years of his life Charles Hutchinson Gabriel (b. Wilton, IA, 1856; d. Los Angeles, CA, 1932) lived on an Iowa farm, where friends and neighbors often gathered to sing. Gabriel accompanied them on the family reed organ he had taught himself to play. At the age of sixteen he began teaching singing in schools (following in his father's footsteps) and soon was acclaimed as a fine teacher and composer. He moved to California in 1887 and served as Sunday school music director at the Grace Methodist Church in San Francisco. After moving to Chicago in 1892, Gabriel edited numerous collections of anthems, cantatas, and a large number of songbooks for the Homer Rodeheaver, Hope, and E. O. Excell publishing companies. He composed hundreds of tunes and texts, at times using pseudonyms such as Charlotte G. Homer. The total number of his compositions is estimated at about seven thousand. Gabriel's gospel songs became widely circulated through the Billy Sunday-Homer Rodeheaver urban crusades. Bert Polman
