VERSE 1: Today you say this world is filled with sadness, You've search'd but could not find a ray of gladness,/ Dearest, cease your crying, and look to Him above, And then you'll find about you the miracles of love; VERSE 2: If faith you had and of your life you are giving, Then joys untold will make it worth the living,/ Happiness and sunshine scattered here and there, Will always be reflected on those who give their share. CHORUS: Dearest, the sun shines bright for you, Dearest, the flowers bloom for you,/ Dearest, the bluebirds sing today, And don't you know you breathe the same air as they?/ Dearest, wipe the tear drop from your eye, Dearest, please don't cry;/ I know that nature wears her best for you, The skies too, hold a little more blue;/ And God's in His Heaven, smiling down on you/ Don't be sad, just be glad, be glad my dearest! | |
