If only a smile,

For many you meet
Who are sad all the while,
Have something to spare,
II it's only a smile.
Have something TO spare,
As you travel along,
II only a word
Or a cheer-g giving song.
For many are bent
Meath a burden of care,
And many are close
To the vale of despair.

Or a whisper of cheer.
For joyless is life
To some, all the while;
