1 Are you living in the blessed sunshine?
Are you trusting all the way?
Is your life one happy song,
With a faith and courage strong?
Are you living in the sunshine today?

Chorus:
Blessed sunshine, blessed sunshine,
How it cheers us on our way!
In what fullness it abounds;
There is sunshine all around;
Are you living in the sunshine today?

2 Are you walking in the blessed sunshine?
Is it streaming on your way?
Do you let its rays divine
In your life and actions shine?
Are you walking in the sunshine today? [Chorus]

3 Are you working in the blessed sunshine?
Building for eternity?
do you do the kindly deed
For a brother when in need?
Are you working in the sunshine today? [Chorus]

4 Help as best you can to send the sunshine;
What a blessing that you may
Into lives both dark and drear,
Send the sunshine of good cheer;
Help to send the blessed sunshine today? [Chorus]
