Author: Lizzie DeArmond Hymnal: Sunday School Voices, No.2 #181 (1913) First Line: The big round sun peeped in my room Refrain First Line: Like the sunbeams we would shine Lyrics: 1 The big round sun peeped in my room
In such a cheery way,
He tried to shine his very best,
And said, “Wake up, ‘tis day!”
Chorus:
Like the sunbeams we would shine,
Ev’ry day, ev’ry day;
Like the sunbeams we would shine—
Brightly, all the way.
2 Tho’ only little girls and boys,
Each one can be a light,
And help to make the dear old earth
More beautiful and bright. [Chorus]
3 The big round sun peeped in my room
From skies of blue above,
And when I look up in its face,
It tells me “God is love.” [Chorus]
Languages: English Tune Title: [The big round sun peeped in my room]
We Would Shine
