When the Heart Is Right

Days don’t seem a bit too long,

     Ain’t afeard o’ night;

Let ol’ trouble come along

We will meet him with a song

     When the heart is right.

Plenty for our hands to do,

Ain’t no time for feelin’ blue

     When the heart is right.

We’re awake at break o’ day

     Ready for the fight;

Ready for the labor fray,

Good day’s work for good day’s pay,

     When the heart is right.

Labor is a joy supreme

Part of Lord’s intended scheme

     When the heart is right.

There’s a chance to lend a hand

     Chances infinite,

To the one who cannot stand

As master hand hath planned

     When the heart is right.

Life is runnin’ free an’ fine,

And the passage is divine,

     When the heart is right.
