Music by Charles Hutchinson Gabriel Words by Ina Duley Ogdon VERSE 1 D E7 A7 Do not wait until some deed of greatness you may do, D do not wait to shed your light afar, G to the many duties ever near you now be true, D A7 D brighten the corner where you are. REFRAIN A7 Brighten the corner where you are! D Brighten the corner where you are! G Someone far from harbor you may guide across the bar, D A7 D brighten the corner where you are. VERSE 2 D E7 A7 Just above are clouded skies that you may help to clear, D let not narrow self your way debar, G though into one heart alone may fall your song of cheer, D A7 D brighten the corner where you are. REFRAIN A7 Brighten the corner where you are! D Brighten the corner where you are! G Someone far from harbor you may guide across the bar, D A7 D brighten the corner where you are. VERSE 3 D E7 A7 Here for all your talent you may surely find a need, D here reflect the bright and morning star, G even from your humble hand the bread of life may feed, D A7 D brighten the corner where you are. REFRAIN A7 Brighten the corner where you are! D Brighten the corner where you are! G Someone far from harbor you may guide across the bar, D A7 D brighten the corner where you are.
