On the Sunny Side of Life
Tillit S. Teddlie (1918) • English

Verse 1
There’s a sunny side where no ills betide, On the road that we must go; There are pleasant vales, verdant hills and dales, Where sweet flowers ever grow.
Chorus
Oh, the happy, sunny, verdant dales, Where the sweetest gladness e’er prevails, Where the sunshine lingers on the hills Of the sunny side of life.
Verse 2
There are shady dells where no gladness dwells, And the clouds obstruct the view; But a brighter way, like the light of day, Is awaiting now for you.
Chorus
Oh, the happy, sunny, verdant dales, Where the sweetest gladness e’er prevails, Where the sunshine lingers on the hills Of the sunny side of life.
Verse 3
Let us sing a song as we go along, Let us banish care and strife, That the world may know as we onward go, There’s a sunny side of life.
Chorus
Oh, the happy, sunny, verdant dales, Where the sweetest gladness e’er prevails, Where the sunshine lingers on the hills Of the sunny side of life.
