SUNSHINE,

And a day somewhere that's fair
To lead us from the shadows
In the heaviest hour of care.
There's always something singing
Through the sorrow and the tear;
There's always something bringing
Unto every life some cheer.
We're not the only sufferers,
There are others plunged in woe;
We haven't all the troubles,
There are lots we never know.
And life's still worth the living
Though lot Of things go wrong.
If we'd only keep on giving
Love and tenderness and song.
There's gospel of sweet laughter
That we ought to follow more,
If we hope for an hereafter
On bright and shining shore.
There's creed of helping others
That would help US all lot
When our trials and tribulations
Have been buried and forgot.
Always some bright sunshine
If you try to see il clear;
Something sweeter than the shadows,
Something happier than the tear.
And the very time we murmur
That there's so much gloom and
night
Is when the sun is struggling
TO bestoW on us it's light.
The Bentztown Bard.

When his brother OF the bank roll slips
