Lyrics

  1. There’s a dark and a troubled side of life;
    There’s a bright and a sunny side, too;
    Tho’ we meet with the darkness and strife,
    The sunny side we also may view.

Chorus
Keep in the sunny side,
Always on the sunny side,
Keep on the sunny side of life;
It will help us every day,
It will brighted all the way,
If we keep on the sunny side of life.

  1. Tho’ the storm in its fury breaks today,
    Crushing hopes that we cherished so dear;
    Storm and cloud will in time pass away,
    The sun again will shine bright and clear.
  2. Let us greet with a song of hope each day,
    Tho’ the moments be cloudy or fair;
    Let us trust in our Saviour alway,
    Who keepeth every one in His care
