Sunshine

The sun­shine I have found

Will fill each day with joy

And ev­ery mo­ment sweet­ly bless;

The rays that gent­ly fall

Upon my dai­ly path

Are given by the Sun of Right­eous­ness.

So if the sky is dark

And if the day is drea­ry

The sun is shin­ing some­where

This I know

I know;

And so to keep my heart

From ever grow­ing wea­ry

I’ll car­ry my sun­shine with me

Everywhere I go.

Look up and praise the Lord!

The flow­ers need the rain

That falls up­on them day by day;

Just as our thirs­ty souls

Would seek the cool­ing springs

If we were walk­ing in a des­ert way.

But for the child of God

There al­ways is a ray

That strug­gles thro’ the clouds ab­ove;

That shines across his path

And keeps his wa­ver­ing faith

To rest se­cure­ly in a Fa­ther’s love.

It is the light that shines

When Je­sus speaks to me

And tells me I am saved by grace;

The sun­shine I have found

Is free to all who seek

The sun­shine of my bless­èd Sav­ior’s face.
