|
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. |
|
|
