619. Sunshine in My Soul

1 There is sunshine in my soul today,
More glorious and bright
Than glows in any earthly sky,
For Jesus is my light.

Chorus:
O there's sunshine, (O there's sunshine in my soul,)
blessed sunshine, (blessed sunshine in my soul,)
When the peaceful, happy moments roll; (happy moments roll;)
When Jesus shows His smiling face,
There is sunshine in my soul.

2 There is music in my soul today,
A carol to my King;
And Jesus, listening, can hear
The songs I cannot sing. [Chorus]

3 There is music in my soul today,
For when my Lord is near
The dove of peace sings in my heart,
The flowers of grace appear. [Chorus]

4 There is gladness in my soul today,
And hope and praise and love
For blessings which He gives me now,
For joys "laid up" above. [Chorus]
