14066. Love Is Kind

1 Have you had a kindness shown?
Kindness show;
’Twas not giv’n for you alone,
Love bestow;
Let it travel down the years,
Let it wipe another’s tears
Till in Heav’n the deed appears,
White as snow, white as snow.

Refrain:
White as snow, white as snow,
Cheerful word or loving deed,
White as snow;
Live for self, you live in vain,
Live for Christ, you live again;
Live for Him, with Him you reign,
White as snow, white as snow.

2 Did you hear the loving word?
Send it forth;
Like the singing of a bird?
Send it forth!
Let its music live and grow,
Let it cheer another’s woe;
You have reaped what others sow;
Send it forth! send it forth! [Refrain]

3 Have you found the heav’nly light?
Let it shine;
Souls are groping in the night,
Let it shine!
Hold your lighted lamp on high,
Be a star in someone’s sky;
He may live who else would die,
Let it shine, let it shine. [Refrain]
