It will Dhelp us every day, it will Gbrighten all the Dway
If we Dkeep on the Asunny side of Dlife

Let us Dgreet with a Gsong of hope each Dday
Though the Dmoments be cloudy or Afair
Let us Atrust that the Saviour alDways
Will Akeep us, every one, in His Dcare

Oh, the Dstorm and its Gfury broke toDday
Crushing Dhopes that I cherish so Adear

And the Asun again will shine bright and Dclear

DKeep on the sunny side of Alife
It will Dhelp us every D7day, it will Gbrighten all the Dway
