Sam Robson just released a stunning a cappella version of “Keep on the Sunny Side,” and it will brighten your day. The incredibly dedicated a cappella arrangement is sure to impress. Watch the clip to see the performance. 

Sam Robson’s cover includes an impressive 16 video panels that display him singing or playing an instrument in each one. This performance, no doubt, took him days to make, and the result is truly stunning. Sam keeps up several high pitches as he sings the old tune. 

The song, ‘Keep on the Sunny Side,’ was written in 1899 by Ada Blenkhorn and put to music by J. Howard Entwisle. The song was made popular in 1928 by The Carters and then again in 1974 when Johnny Cash and June Carter Cash sang it. Ada was inspired by her nephew to write the song. He used a wheelchair and always insisted on being pushed down “the sunny side” of the street. It’s a beautiful Christian song about staying in the light and trusting in God. 

Some of the lyrics are:

Though the moment be cloudy or fair
Let us trust in our Savior always
To keep us every one in His care
Keep on the sunny side, always on the sunny side

Sam does a wonderful job of covering this song, and it’s a lovely choice. It truly lifts the spirits to hear a song about positivity that has clearly had so much dedication and time put into it. It is a song that may be little known today but has a timeless message: choose to walk on the bright side and put your trust in God, who cares for us. 

“Behold, God is my salvation; I will trust, and will not be afraid; for Jehovah, even Jehovah, is my strength and song; and he is become my salvation.” Isaiah 12:2
