333. Go Cheerfully!

1 Go walking through the world
and welcome that of God again
that you have found before
and find again today
in ev'ry woman, child or man
you meet upon your way.

2 Go cheerfully, I say,
and give the peace that you have found,
the peace that is of God.
Go cheerfully, I say.
And give the peace of God to all
you meet upon your way.

3 Go walking with the truth,
and show the truth you travel with,
the truth that is of God,
wherever you may be.
And show it like a looking glass
for all the world to see.

4 Go cheerfully, I say,
and wave a welcome to the Light
that you have found before
and find again today
in ev'ry mirror dull or bright
you meet upon your way.
