We all need music that lifts our hearts. Good worship music can turn a hard day around and remind us that God is near.

Lindsay Kirkland sings with her husband under the name Sounds Like Reign on YouTube. Their gospel performances have touched millions of people. Recently, she posted a video where she sings ‘Keep on the Sunny Side’ with just her voice and a guitar.

Ada Blenkhorn wrote this song back in 1899. The Carter Family made it famous years later. The song tells us to look on the bright side when things get tough.

It says we should trust God and think about His blessings instead of our problems. We can choose faith over worry. We can choose joy over sadness.

People loved Lindsay’s video. They left kind comments about her singing. One person wrote, “Sounds so pure. Lindsay’s voice and a guitar, simple uncomplicated worship. Praise be to our Father in Heaven.”

Someone else said, “Praise God! Thank you for this song! Beautifully sung Lindsay!”

When life gets hard, we can remember this song’s message. We can keep our eyes on Jesus. We can stay on the sunny side by trusting that God has good plans for us.
