Sunbeams

1 We are little sunbeams,
Shining day by day,
Shining for the Savior,
At our work and play;
Shining for the Savior
At our work and play.

2 Like the Star of Bethlehem,
Shining thro' the night,
We would guide earth's pilgrims
To the Land of Light;
We would guide earth's pilgrims
To the Land of Light.

3 Dark would be the shadows
And the pathway drear,
If we did not scatter
sunbeams far and near;
If we did not scatter
sunbeams far and near.

4 Clouds may sometimes gather,
But will flee away
If we keep on shining
Brighter ev'ry day;
If we keep on shining
Brighter ev'ry day.

5 Loving, helpful sunbeams
We will ever be,
shining, always shining,
Dearest Lord, for Thee;
Shining, always shining,
Dearest Lord, for Thee.
