Text:Give, Little Sunbeams
Tune:[Give, little sunbeams, golden bright]
Composer:Maltbie D. Babcock

23. Give, Little Sunbeams

1 Give, little sunbeams, golden bright,
Give to the world your cheery light.
Give, little welcome drops of rain,
Till thirsty meadows smile again.

Refrain:
Giving and loving, loving and giving,
So we find the good of living:
Giving our hearts at the Saviour’s call;
Love is the very best gift of all.

2 Give, little flowers, fresh and fair,
Breathing sweet perfume on the air.
Give, little birds, your spring-time glee,
Filling the woods with melody. [Refrain]

3 Give, little children, day by day,
Helping each other as you may.
What can we give our Saviour King?
Love is the best gift we can bring. [Refrain]
