Do not wait until some deed of greatness you may do, |
Do not wait to shed your light afar, |
To the many duties ever near you now be true, |
Brighten the corner where you are. |
|
Refrain |
|
Brighten the corner where
you are! |
Brighten the corner where
you are! |
Someone far from harbor you
may guide across the bar; |
Brighten the corner where
you are! |
|
Just above are clouded skies that you may help to clear, |
Let not narrow self your way debar; |
Though into one heart alone may fall your song of cheer, |
Brighten the corner where you are. |
|
Refrain |
|
Here for all your talent you may surely find a need, |
Here reflect the bright and Morning Star; |
Even from your humble hand the Bread of Life may feed, |
Brighten the corner where you are. |
|
Refrain |
