The Master's Song

This world is so hard and so stony;
That if a man is to get through,
He’d need have the courage of Nelson,
And plenty of Job’s patience too.
But a man who is kind to another
And cheerfully helps him along,
God Bless such a man and a brother,
And here’s to his health in a song.

And here’s to his health, here’s to his health
And here’s to his health in a song.

{All sing Chorus}
And here’s to his health, here’s to his health
And here’s to his health in a song.

This life is as cheerless as Winter,
To those who are cold in the heart;
but a man who is warm in his nature,
Bids Winter for ever depart
The ground that he treads on will blossom,
Till beauty around him shall throng;
God Bless such a man and a brother,
And here’s to his health in a song.

And here’s to his health; here’s to his health
And here’s to his health in a song.

{All sing Chorus}

As clouds that in sunshine are open,
And silvered by light passing through;
So men who are generous in spirit,
Are blessed by the good deeds they do;
There’s nothing like helping another
For getting one’s own self along;
Who does this is truly a brother.
And here’s to his health in a song.

And here’s to his health; here’s to his health
And here’s to his health in a song

{All sing Chorus}
