And when grief sleeps 10 wake il;
Bright happiness is standing by
This life is what We make it,
Let's find the sunny side OF mcu,
Or be believers in it
A light there is in every soul
That takes the pains to win it
Oh there's slunIbering good in all,
And we perchance may wake it
Our hands coutaiu the magic waud--
This life is VIVA, W. make it.
