Right Now

Get Busy Buzzing Around

Now is the time to be happy, now is the hour to be glad,

Now is the day to be merry and never a moment to be sad;

Never an instant grow lonely—friends all about us, and they

Make, if it’s only in spirit, a beautiful thing of the day.

Now is the time to be busy, busy at things we love best;

Now is the time to be knitting and sewing and all of the rest;

Now is the hour for glad service, and which ever way we shall turn,

Oh, what a light we do follow, guarding and helping it burn!

Now is the time for our dreaming, daring and look ahead,

Now is the hour to draw closer and, where we can, loveliness spread,

Loveliness both of our fancy and blossoms enriching our way,

Now is the time to be happy, just living and hoping to-day!
