D                      G               D
There's a dark and a troubled side of life
                                       A A7
There's a bright there's a sunny side too
                                        D
Though we meet with the darkness and strife
     A            A7        D
The sunny side we also may view

Chorus:
D                      G
Keep on the sunny side always on the sunny side
D                          A
Keep on the sunny side of life
         D                          G               D
It will help us every day it will brighten all the way
                      G             D
If we'll keep on the sunny side of life

Let us greet with the song of hope each day
Though the moment be cloudy or fair
Let us trust in our Savior away
Who kept everyone in His care

Chorus

The storm and its fury broke today
Crushing hopes that I cherish so dear
Storms and clouds will in time pass away
The sun again will shine bright and clear
