On life's rugged road,

Far, far more of sunshine,
Would brighten the way,
If forgetful of self
And troubles, we had
The will, and would try
To make other hearts glad.
Though Of the worlds wealth
We've little in store,
And labor 20 keep
Grim want from the door,
With a hand that il kind
And heart that is true,
To make others glad
There is much we may do.
a word kindly spoken,
a smile or a tear,
Though but seeming but trihes
Full often may cheer.
Each day TO our lives
Some treasure 'twould add

Had made somebody glad.
Those who sit in the darkness,
Of sorrow, 20 dresr,
Have heed Of word
Of solace and cheer.
There are homes that are desolate,
Hearts that are sad
