The Bright Side.

By L. A. Cartwright

Beyond the shadows and the gloom, Beyond the portals of the tomb, There is a bright side. While here life's sunbeams are so rare, Here is so much of toil and care, Where is the bright side?
It's easy thus to tell another, Be cheerful and rejoice, brother, “Look on the bright side.” But when the trouble falls on you, Not so easy a thing to do, To see the bright side.
A heartfelt look of sympathy, With words and deeds for company, Make a bright side. And those whose own sins are forgiven, May point the weary ones to Heaven, Where there's a bright side.
L. A. CARTWRIGHT.
