    If nobody smiled and nobody cheered
    And nobody helped us along
    If each every minute looked after himself
    And good things all went to the strong
    If nobody cared just a little for you
    And nobody thought about me
    And we stood all alone in the Battle of Life
    What a dreary old world it would be.

    GOOD NIGHT MY JESUS - A PRAYER
    Jesus Dear, the day is over
    Now I leave my labour light
    And before I seek my slumber
    Come to say a sweet "Good Night".
    (II)
    So "Good Night" once more my Jesus
    Grant no matter where I be
    All my day thoughts and night dreaming
    Be of Thee and only Thee.
