[Chorus] D G D Keep on the sunny side, always on the sunny side A7 Keep on the sunny side of life D G D It will help us every day, it will brighten all our way A7 D If we keep on the sunny side of life D G D There's a dark and a troubled side of life A7 There's a bright and a sunny side too D Though we meet with the darkness and strife A7 D The sunny side we also may view (chorus) D G D Oh, the storm in its fury broke today A7 Crushing all that we cherished so dear D Storms and clouds many times pass away A7 D The sun will shine again bright and clear (chorus) D G D Pave the streets with a song of holy praise A7 Tho the moment be cloudy or fair D Let us trust in our Saviour always A7 D He keepeth everyone in His care (chorus)
