Lyrics & Stanzas
4 portions
Verse 1
If the skies above you are gray, You are feeling so blue, If your cares and burdens seem great All the whole day thru, There's a silver lining that shines In the heavenly land, Look by faith and see it my friend, Trust in His promises grand.
Verse 2
Often we are troubled and tired, Sick with sorrow and pain, There are others living in sin Blest with earthly gain, Take new courage we cannot tell What the morrow may bring, When the dark clouds vanish away Then your heart truly can sing.
Verse 3
Oft we fail to see the rainbow Up in heaven's fair sky, When it seems the fortunes of earth Frown and pass us by. There are things we know that are worth More than silver and gold, If we hope and trust Him each day, We shall have pleasure untold.
Chorus
Sing and you'll be happy today, (Sing and be happy,) Press along to the goal, (Press on to the goal,) Trust in Him who leadeth the way, (Trust Him who leads you,) He is keeping your soul; (He will keep your soul,) Let the world know where you belong, (Let all be faithful) Look to Jesus and pray, (Look to Him and pray,) Lift your voice and praise Him in song, Sing and be happy today.
