Try to Carry Sunshine

Try to car­ry sun­shine

Everywhere you go;

Try to bright­en

some way

Lives of those you know.

If the day be drea­ry

And the way seem long

Try to make it bright­er

By a bit of song.

Try to carry sun­shine

Everywhere you go;

Try to bright­en

some way

Lives of those you know;

Try to car­ry sun­shine

Everywhere you go.

Try to be a sun­beam

Shining for the Lord

Living in His pre­sence

Feeding on His word.

Storms may ov­er­take you

Fearful in their might;

Trust to Je­sus’ guid­ing

For with Him ’tis light.

If you walk with Je­sus

Joyfully each day

Trying to tell oth­ers

Of the bless­èd way

Never fear temp­ta­tion

He’ll not let you fall;

Christ

the Lord

is near you

When on Him you call.

If your life is glad­some

Full of joy and love

It will point to Je­sus

And the life ab­ove.

If you are but faith­ful

Thro’ life’s lit­tle day

You may show to oth­ers

God’s ap­point­ed way.
