Lyrics

O do some good deed ev­ery day,
And speak kind words along the way;
O sing a glad and cheer­ful song,
For it may make some weak heart strong.

Refrain

O do some good deed ev­ery day,
Then will the lov­ing Mas­ter say:
Your deeds wrought in My name shall be
Recorded as done un­to Me.

O help a bro­ther bear his load
O’er life’s up­hill and drea­ry road;
With those who need, share ev’ry day
The bless­ings God has sent your way.

Refrain

O seek, and you will al­ways find
The sheaves of good to reap and bind;
There’s some­thing you can do or say
For Christ the Mas­ter’s sake each day.
