Keep On Smiling

If at times you feel you want to cry.

And life seems such a trial.

Above the clouds there’s a bright blue sky 

So make your tears a smile. 

As you travel on life’s way 

With its many ups and downs 

Remember it’s quite true to say 

One smile is worth a dozen frowns. 

Among the worlds expensive things 

A smile is very cheap 

And when you give a smile away, 

You get one back to keep. 

Happiness comes at times to all 

But sadness comes unbidden 

And sometimes a few tears must fall 

Among the laughter hidden. 

So when friends have sadness on their face 

And troubles round them piled 

The world will seem a better place 

And all because you smiled.
