LET YOUR LIGHT SHINE.

| LEI YOUR LIGHT SHINE.
TALK happiness What if you're not
i As light and as bright as the skies,
| Where the sun ever shines
Down the silvery lines
/ That swing out of Paradise;
VIII the shadows you feel
And do not conceal
Make the shine of the sun any
brighter?
/ viii the burdens you bear
And expose everywhere
Make the load of the weary ones
lighter?
Talk happiness What tho
/ You've got an overplus of wo,
/ Conceal it somehow. You will find
1 There's plenty Of the other kind
To talk their troubles. Don't you let
Yourself be caught in any net
With such a bunch. Brace up, and
show
/ Yourself superior to wo.
/ or course it is bluff; but, say.
| You needn't give yourself away.
]
What lies behind your cheerful show.
/ Ialk happiness. By that
You rise above the dreary fat
/ Of trouble-talkers, and command
A passing glimpse of Happyland:
A passing glimpse that brings some
cheer
To you no less than those who hear
The words you speak and, hearing, nft
Their heavy eyes up to the rift
That breaks the clouds and let's the
blue
With its good cheer, come streaming
through.
Talk happiness. It's hard, no doubt,
But there's enough to talk about;
And tho it isn't yours, perhaps,
Rejoice at other peoples snaps.
If you have troubles, cut them out,
Or leave to friends to talk about
Talk happiness, altho
Your bosom may be full of wo
But if you can't-if you must tell
How far the Lord has not done well
By you, go out and throw your words
Of wo and trouble to the birds.
