And though you do not find
All things according to your wish,
Be not disturbed in mind;
The greatest evil that can come
Are lighter far to bear,
When met by fortitude and strength,
Instead Of doubt and fear.
Always look on the sunny side
There's health in harmless Jest,
And much to soothe our worldly cares
In hoping for the best.
The gloomy path is far too dark,
For happy feet to tread,
And tells of pain and solit ude,
or friends estranged aud dead.
Always look on the sunny side,
And never yield to doubt:
The ways of Providence are wise,
And faith will bear you out
II you but make this maxim yours,
And in the strength abide,
Believing all is for the best
Look on the sunny side.
