TRY A SMILE

TRY A SMILE
In your journey through the years,
Use a smile.
1t will weave a hope from fears,
Use a smile,
There's a power that somehow brings
To the heart that ever sings
All the old worlds goodly things
It's a smile.
If the clouds o'ercast the sky,
Use a smile
They will vanish by and by,
With a smile.
Though the world with woe seems
rife,
You can challenge all the strife

That comes creeping into life.
With smile.
If the world seems upside down,
Use a smile.
For it won't help things 10 frown--
Try a smile.
There's hope that stays TO bless;
You can win the sweet caress
or the tickle god Success,
With a smile.
If you think you've missed the mark
Use a smile.

Why, just smile.
There's a coming day that's bright;
There's a dawn beyond the night,
If you smile.
