If We Brightly Shine

lyricist: William Runyan, 1919
Composer: Daniel Towner

If we bright­ly shine

if we sweet­ly smile

We will help to short­en each long mile;

If we speak the words of love and cheer

Happy days will make a hap­py year.

If we bright­ly shine

if we sweet­ly smile

We will help to short­en the long

long mile;

It will help to make our lives di­vine

If

with Je­sus’ love we shine

shine

shine.

If we do kind deeds in a kind­ly way

Friends will glad­ly greet us day by day

And our pre­sence

then

will wel­come be

All be­cause our hap­pi­ness they see.

So we’ll sweet­ly smile and we’ll bright­ly shine

And the cross of Je­sus be our sign;

For we want this world to bet­ter be

By our lov­ing serv­ice

glad and free.
