There is Sunshine in my Soul!

There Is Sunshine in My Soul Today

Joyfully

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

[Chorus]
Oh, there’s sunshine, blessed sunshine
When the peaceful happy moments roll.
When Jesus shows his smiling face,
There is sunshine in the soul.

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

3. There is springtime in my soul today,
For when the Lord is near,
The dove of peace sings in my heart,
The flow’rs of grace appear.

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.

Isaiah 60:19

Psalm 16:9, 11

For the last few weeks, this song has been going over and over in my mind. I find myself singing it all throughout the day. I have been thinking about all the things I hear every day that are so sad, and I realized that sometimes I just need to find a little sunshine. I have decided that I am going to search for a story, a talk, a thought, a quote, to share that just might brighten someone's day. Happiness is a wonderful thing.
