The Sunny Side of the Road

Author: Lanta Wilson Smith Hymnal: Sunday School and Revival #168 (1907) First Line: There is a sunny side to every path below Refrain First Line: Keep on the sunny side Lyrics: 1 There is a sunny side to ev’ry path below, Where the birds are singing and the sweetest blossoms blow; In peace and pleasure may the trusting heart abide, Finding joy and comfort on the blessed, sunny side. Chorus: Keep on the sunny side, Keep on the sunny side, Keep the sunny side of the road; Keep on the sunny side, Keep on the sunny side, Keep the sunny side of the road. 2 Meet ev’ry conflict with a courage brave and strong; Truth and right shall conquer tho’ the fight be fierce and long; While in the battel be a soldier and a guide; Lead the way to vict’ry on the blessed, sunny side. [Chorus] 3 There is a shady side where ceaseless sins abound; Revelry and discord in the darkest depths are found; There is a path of safety for the sorely tried; Walk with Jesus daily on the blessed, sunny side. [Chorus] 4 Clouds keep the silver lining tow’rds the glowing sun; Gild your darkest trials with a faith that’s nobly won; Above the shadows let your trusting heart abide, Faith and hope are shining on the blessed, sunny side. [Chorus] Languages: English Tune Title: [There is a sunny side to every path below]
