Sunshine in my soul I tell you

Representative Text

Chorus:
O the sunshine, sunshine, sunshine,
in a my soul this morning;
Sunshine, sunshine, there's sunshine in a my soul.

1 I remember the time, I remember it well,
There is sunshine in a my soul,
When Jesus saved my soul from hell,
There is sunshine in a my soul. [Chorus]

2 It makes me laugh and it makes e cry,
There is sunshine in a my soul,
To feel my Jesus passing by,
There is sunshine in a my soul. [Chorus]

3 I looked at my hands, and my hands looked new,
There is sunshine in a my soul;
I looked at my feet and they looked so too,
There is sunshine in a my soul. [Chorus]

4 King Jesus has come a-riding by,
There is sunshine in a my soul,
And told my poor soul to rise and fly,
There is sunshine in a my soul. [Chorus]
