Living

The Bright Day

by Freeman E. Miller 1864–1951

From Oklahoma Sunshine (1905)

Living

The bright day, the bright day,
The shadows smiling through,--
The bright day, the bright day
Where Love looks up at you!
The bright day, the bright day!
The sorrows fade from view;
The white day, the light day,
The child heart always knew!
The bright day, the bright day!
The sun is golden there;
The sad clouds are glad clouds
And gone is every care.
The sky life, the high life,
Is waiting at the shore;
The bright day, the bright day,
Shining evermore!
