Young People's Songs of Praise ‎#17

17. Keep on the Sunny Side

1 There is a light above, there are smiles of love,
When in Jesus we abide;
There are golden rays on our rugged ways,
When we keep on the sunny side.

Refrain:
Keep on the sunny side,
Keep on the sunny side;
With Jesus near, why should we fear?
Let us keep on the sunny side.

2 A blessing will fall on the hearts of all,
When in Jesus we confide,
And the heavenly beam of His love will gleam,
When we keep on the sunny side. [Refrain]

3 Then let us press on with a cheerful song,
From morn till even tide,
And our paths shall be bright in the Saviour’s light,
When we keep on the sunny side. [Refrain]
