Goodness and Light

Goodness and light
Draw the corners of my mouth
And paint the life line
Up, down, and about,
And all around each part of the day’s welcome face,
Goodness and light shed their grace.

Goodness and light
Sing full voice round the house
And dance in Twine Time
Round, round, and without
Neither care in the world - nor a rat in the race,
Goodness and light shed their grace.

Goodness and light
Bring our joyous side out
Turning water to wine
Praising life as we tout
All the great gifts of god - earth’s a heavenly place,
And goodness and light shed their grace.
