Let us carÂry sunÂshine
Everywhere we go;
It will strengthÂen othÂers,
Jesus’ love to know;
If our hearts grow weaÂry,
Let us sing and pray,
Help some wanÂderÂing soul
To find the livÂing way.
Refrain
Let us carÂry sunÂshine
Everywhere we go;
It will strengthÂen othÂers,
Jesus’ love to know;
Let us carÂry sunÂshine,
Everywhere we go.
Let us be a suÂnbeam,
Shining for the Lord;
Walking in His footÂsteps,
Trusting in His word;
If tempÂtaÂtions lead us
From the paths of right,
Let us look to JeÂsus,
For in Him is light.
Refrain
If your life’s a sunÂbeam,
All is peace withÂin;
Let it shine for JeÂsus,
Other souls to win;
Toiling in His vineÂyard,
Ever faithÂful be;
Brighter beams in gloÂry
Wait to shine for thee.
Refrain
