Be a Better Man
by
Alice C. Bateman
![](../../_themes/sumipntg/sumhorsa.gif)
Well I carry God's Light with me and I spread it all around
I cannot stand to see a mouth with the corners turning down
If me and God can't make you smile then I don't know who can
If you carried God's Light too my friend you would be a better
man
There are days that make you happy
And days that make you cry
There are days that make you wonder
Is there any reason why
There are days that make you sing out loud
And days that make you grin
But the days you must watch out for
Are the days that make you sin
Well I carry God's Light with me and I spread it all around
I cannot stand to see a mouth with the corners turning down
If me and God can't make you smile, then I don't know who can
If you carried God's Light too my friend, you would be a
better man
There are times you want to travel
And times to stay at home
But you know He's always with you
Even when you want to roam
He is always by your side
Whatever you may do
And He's keeping Heaven shining
For one day to welcome you
Well I carry God's Light with me and I spread it all around
I cannot stand to see a face with the corners turning down
If me and God can't make you smile, then I don't know who can
If you carried God's Light too, my friend, you would be a
better man
