There's Sunshine in My Soul Today

There's Sunshine in My Soul Today

Text written by E. E. Hewitt (1851-1920)

Music composed by John R. Sweney (1837-1899)

Psalm 27:1 The Lord is my light and my salvation—

whom shall I fear?

The Lord is the stronghold of my life—

of whom shall I be afraid?

V. 1 There's sunshine in my soul today,

More glorious and bright

Than glows in any earthly sky,

For Jesus is my light.

Refrain: O there's sunshine, blessed sunshine,

When the peaceful, happy moments roll;

When Jesus shows His smiling face

There is sunshine in the soul.

V. 2 There's music in my soul today,

A carol to my King,

And Jesus, listening, can hear

The songs I cannot sing.

Refrain

V. 3 There's springtime in my soul today,

For when the Lord is near,

The dove of peace sings in my heart,

The flowers of grace appear.

Refrain

2 Timothy 4:9 Do your best to come to me quickly.

V. 4 There's gladness in my soul today,

And hope, and praise, and love,

For blessings which He gives me now,

For joys "laid up" above.

Refrain
