"A BETTER DAYS"
BY G. B. McComb.
When you're feeling mighty blue,
And things have all gone wrong,
And your plans have all got twisted
And life seems no sweet song,
And the cross seems most too heavy
AS you toll upon your way,
It's mighty soothing just to feel
ThereU come a better day.
What if your friends have proved IN
true,
Just bear this thought in mind:
That you have done your very best,
To others been most kind.
And the cross won't be so heavy,
Nor to rough and dark the way,
And you will have the feeling
That thereU come a better day.
This world is not all roses,
Many days dark clouds appear,
But if you'll only do your share
They'll quickly disappear.
And the sun will shine the brighter,
And the birds will sing their lay,
And the trees and buds, will whisper:
"There'n come a better day"
