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.
Refrain
