Smile oh Christian, beaten down
In strength and beauty, stand up tall
Know you know, you need not frown
God is watching judging all
–
Smile oh Christian, don’t you cry
Christian, hold your head up high
For the one who beats the brow
Shall be one to push the plow
–
Holding forty thousand pounds
Holding forty thousand pounds
Grasp His grace; His love abounds
Grasp His grace; His love abounds
–
Smile oh Christian we are one
For together, we will run
Through the forests and the trees
To the golden fields, with ease
–
Holding forty thousand pounds
Like a feather in the breeze
Holding forty thousand pounds
Like a starling in the feis
