There's Sunshine in a Smile

Life is a mixture of sunshine and rain,

Laughter and pleasure,

teardrops and pain,

All days can't be bright,

but it's certainly true,

There was never a cloud

the sun didn't shine through- 

So just keep smiling

whatever betide you,

Secure in the knowledge

God is always beside you,

And you'll find when you smile

your day will be brighter

And all of your burdens

will seem so much lighter-

For each time you smile

you will find it is true

Somebody, somewhere

will smile back at you,

And nothing on earth

can make life more worthwhile

Than the sunshine and warmth

 of a beautiful smile.
