143. Face the Sunshine

1 Always face the sunshine;
Give not sadness room;
Darkness ever chills and blights,
Sturdily turn from gloom.

Refrain:
Face ever the sunshine;
Live in the joy of his smile;
Beautiful beams of sunshine
Grief and care beguile.

2 Joy is in the sunshine,
Color in the light;
Blessing goes where light can come,
Radiant, warm and bright. [Refrain]

3 Hope is on the mountain
By the sunlight kissed;
Ready stand to greet the dawn
Down in the valley mist. [Refrain]

4 Always face the sunshine,
Live the life of cheer,
Singing, smiling everywhere,
While you are staying here. [Refrain]
