Hewitt Hymnal: Sunday School Voices, No.2 #154 (1913) First Line: Lifted into the sunshine, ring it out with a song Refrain First Line: Lifted, lifted, Jesus has lifted me Lyrics: 1 Lifted into the sunshine, ring it out with a song; Glory be to our Savior, praise him all day long; Lifted up from the darkness, lifted out of the night, Into radiant morning, love’s own beautiful light. Chorus: Lifted, lifted, Jesus has lifted me, Lifted, lifted, into a life so free; Lifted out of the darkness into morning all bright; Beautiful day, eternal day, in Jesus’ light. 2 Lifted into the sunshine, rescued by arms Divine; What a mighty salvation, great his mercies to shine; To a life full of service glowing with faith and love, Giving to those about us gleams from heaven above. [Chorus] 3 Lifted into the sunshine, gladly doing his will; Sadly others are groping, down in black darkness still; Lift them up to the Savior, tell of his boundless grace, Till in that fadeless morning we behold his blest face.
