We can tell a hundred stories; we can speak a million words.
We can paint a thousand pictures, but will our heart be stirred.
We can often make a difference, with a kindly word or deed.
But sometimes just a smile is all we really need.

Just a smile… can lift a weary heart.
Just a smile… can help us make a start.
When you’ve done your best, praying you’ll succeed.
Then you will see, a smile is what we need.

This world is unforgiving, full of coldness and despair.
Many hopes are disappointed, by a world that doesn’t care.
And we see it in their faces, as they passes on the street.
So we offer a hope [bad word]  to the people that we meet.

Just a smile… can lift a weary heart.
Just a smile… can help us make a start.
When you’ve done your best, praying you’ll succeed.
Then you will see, a smile is what we need.

At times we feel downhearted, when no one seems to care.
About the hope we offer, or the message that we bear.
For some hearts that’s just too hardened, to receive the Kingdom seed.
But could it be a friendly smile, is what they really need.

Just a smile… can lift a weary heart.
Just a smile… can help us make a start.
When you’ve done your best, praying you’ll succeed.
Then you will see, a smile is what we need.
