Never Look On Trouble -Children's Song

Never Look On Trouble (Children's song)
(Music and lyrics by Joan Donnelly written 1982)

Verse 1:
If there's a song in your heart nothing can keep you apart
From love ,real love
If there's a tune in your ear, a lightness in your step- suddenly appears

Chorus:
Never look on trouble but always on the love that fills the air
It's everywhere, everywhere

Verse 2:
If you've a melody m all the world will see-you're wrapped in love, real love
If there's a rainbow in your eye, the clouds will -in confusion-roll on by 

2nd Chorus:
Never look on trouble but catch a glimpse of love that fills the air
It's everywhere, everywhere.
Love is what's experienced when you sing a song
A song joyful and friendly,
Come on sing along
Never look on trouble but always on the love that fills the air
It's everywhere, It's everywhere, Everywhere.....(then whispered loudly) Love is everywhere!

I formed a pre-teen, all girl  choir in the 80's.  I called them Rainbow and they performed publically songs I'd composed. We had a lot of fun and I am still in touch with most of them
