BRIGHTEN THE CONER WHERE YOU ARE

INA DULEY OGDON

1. Don’t wait until some deed of greatness you may do
Do not wait to shed your light afar
To the man duties ever near you now be true
Brighten the corner where you are

Chorus
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

2. Just above the clouded skies that
You may help to clear
Let’s not narrow self your way debar
Tho’ into one heart alone may fall
Your song of cheer,
Brighten the corner where you are

3. 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
