Author: Ida M. Budd Hymnal: Songs of Sovereign Grace #30 (1897) First Line: When the sun is shining bright in the clear blue sky Refrain First Line: We are glad, so glad all the joyous day Lyrics: 1 When the sun is shining bright in the clear blue sky, And the clouds, so soft and white, are slowly drifting by; Where the gaily tinted flow’rs their sweet perfume give, What a pleasant, happy world this is in which to live. Refrain: We are glad, so glad all the joyous day, For we never can be sad while all around our way We can see His love shining ev’ry where, And we praise Him that He makes the world so bright and fair. 2 When the tear-like raindrops fall with a patt’ring sound, To refresh the drooping flowers, and cheer the thirsty ground, With the flow’rs our hearts rejoice, as they seem to say: “What a loving hand it is that sends this rain today.” [Refrain] 3 So, in sunshine or in rain, cloudy skies or fair, We will praise him for his love, and for his tender care; And we’ll live and work for him ev’ry passing day, Trusting his dear hand to lead us all along the way. [Refrain] Languages: English Tune Title: [When the sun is shining bright in the clear blue sky]

Chas. H. Gabriel

1856 - 1932 Composer of "[When the sun is shining bright in the clear blue sky]" in Songs of Sovereign Grace Pseudonyms: C. D. Emerson, Charlotte G. Homer, S. B. Jackson, A. W. Lawrence, Jennie Ree ============= For the first seventeen years of his life Charles Hutchinson Gabriel (b. Wilton, IA, 1856; d. Los Angeles, CA, 1932) lived on an Iowa farm, where friends and neighbors often gathered to sing. Gabriel accompanied them on the family reed organ he had taught himself to play. At the age of sixteen he began teaching singing in schools (following in his father's footsteps) and soon was acclaimed as a fine teacher and composer. He moved to California in 1887 and served as Sunday school music director at the Grace Methodist Church in San Francisco. After moving to Chicago in 1892, Gabriel edited numerous collections of anthems, cantatas, and a large number of songbooks for the Homer Rodeheaver, Hope, and E. O. Excell publishing companies. He composed hundreds of tunes and texts, at times using pseudonyms such as Charlotte G. Homer. The total number of his compositions is estimated at about seven thousand. Gabriel's gospel songs became widely circulated through the Billy Sunday-Homer Rodeheaver urban crusades. Bert Polman
