Lyrics

There’s joy in the sunshine
And love in the air,
When Je­sus we meet by the way;
His smile makes each blossom
More lovely and fair,
And so we are singing today.

Refrain

Singing today, singing today,
Singing glad songs
As we go on our way;
We’re singing today, singing today,
Singing the praises of Je­sus today.

The beau­ti­ful flowers
Of grace daily grow,
In hearts that are free from all sin;
And Je­sus will help us
The good seed to sow,
Because we are trusting in Him.

Refrain

Our souls are illumed
By the sunlight of God,
Our gifts at His altar we lay;
Our lives are made bright
By be­liev­ing His Word,
And so we are singing today.
