399. There Is Sunshine in My Soul Today

1 There is 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 my soul.

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

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. (Refrain)

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." (Refrain)
