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.

Unchanging faithfulness and love! Here let me trust, while I adore, Nor from my refuge e'er remove. 5 My God, if thou art mine indeed, Then I have all my heart can crave; A present help in times of need, Still kind to hear, and strong to save. 6 Forgive my doubts, O gracious Lord, And ease the sorrows of my breast; Speak to my heart the healing word, That thou art mine—and I am blest.
