Brighten the way for others day by day; He who the Father is of light and life eternal Will give to thee to scatter on thy way. Chorus: Send forth thy light, the world has need of sunshine; Send forth thy light some darkened heart to cheer; Stretch out thy hand to aid a weary brother, No helpful deed is waster, never fear. 2 Speak but a word, some heart may now be waiting For that one word which thou alone may’st say; Give of thy cheerfulness to all who are about thee; Help dry the tears from saddened eyes away. [Chorus] 3 Give but a smile, it may be that its blessing Will stretch away beyond thy tho’t or ken, And that some lonely life may find its cheerful message; Send forth thy light among thy fellowmen.
