A Beautiful Life
This is a Chuckwagon Gang song I fondly recall from my childhood days. I love hillbilly gospel music! Youtube of the original 1936 recording session Each day I'll do a golden deed By helping those w ho are in need My life on earth i s but a span And so I'll do t he best I can. CHORUS: Life's evening sun i s sinking low A few more days a nd I must go To meet the deed t hat I have done Where there will be n o setting sun To be a child o f God each day My light must shine along the way I'll sing His praise while the ages roll And strive to help some troubled soul. While going down life's weary road I'll try to lift some traveller's load I'll try to turn the night to day Make flowers bloom along the way.
