Let the golden sunlight
In your heart if sad;
It will bring a blessing,
And will make you glad;
Jesus, blessèd Savior,
Helps us conquer sin;
Let the golden sunlight
Of His love shine in.
Refrain
Let the golden sunlight in,
Let the golden sunlight in;
Sing the joyful chorus,
Jesus saves from sin;
Let the golden sunlight
Of His love shine in.
Let the golden sunshine
Spread its ray of light
On your path, if gloomy,
Sunshine makes it bright;
Trusting in God’s promise,
You a crown shall win;
Let the golden sunlight
Of His love shine in.
Refrain
As you journey onward,
Do some kindly deed;
God will guide and keep you,
Sowing precious seed;
In the golden harvest,
There are souls to win,
Let the golden sunlight
Of His love shine in.
