10. Blessed Sunshine

1 Scatter smiles and sunshine
In some gloomy home;
Fill each passing moment
With a kindness shown;
Many hearts are aching,
Many homes are sad,
With your smiles and sunshine
You can make them glad.

Refrain:
Scatter the blessed sunshine,
Scatter its light along,
It will cheer and brighten,
As you pass it on;
Scatter the blessed sunshine,
Scatter its light along,
It will cheer and brighten,
As you pass it on.

2 Loving words, when spoken,
Passing down the years;
Help to raise the fallen,
Check the dropping tears,
Little deeds of kindness,
Little words of love
Make the pathway brighter,
To our home above. [Refrain]

3 When the soul is hopeless
In the depths of sin,
Whisper words of kindness,
Let the sunshine in.
Brighten up the pathway,
With a smile or song;
Help the fallen brother,
Pass the kindness on. [Refrain]
