O give of your sunshine to others!
The world’s full of sorrow and care,
And many a heart will be lightened,
If you will your sunshine but share.
You know not what heart may be fainting
’Neath grief you may help to allay;
O bind up the poor brokenhearted,
And give them your sunshine today.

Refrain

O give of your sunshine to others
And brighten the world while you may;
There’s life-giving power in sunshine,
O scatter it freely today.

O give of your sunshine to others,
’Tis better than silver or gold;
For many of life’s richest treasures
Can be neither purchased or sold.
When Je­sus blest earth with His presence,
It was not of wealth that He gave,
But sympathy, tenderness, mercy,
And love that has power to save.

Refrain

O give of your sunshine to others,
Some soul to right paths it may win;
May strengthen a weak one that’s tempted,
And keep him from yielding to sin.
A word, fitly spoken, has power
To uplift and strengthen the heart;
To weary and heavily laden,
’Twill courage and comfort impart.

Refrain
