81. Be Glad that the Sunshine is Somewhere

1 Be glad that the sunshine is somewhere,
Tho’ thou in the shadow may’st be;
Be glad that another is gladdened,
Tho’ sorrow finds dwelling with thee.

Refrain:
Rejoice, then, rejoice in the darkness,
Rejcoie with a gratitude free;
Be glad that the sunshine is somewhere,
Tho’ thou in the shadow may’st be.
Be glad that another is gladdened,
Tho’ sorrow finds dwelling with thee.

2 ‘Tis easy to praise in the sunlight,
When life is one jubilant strain;
But true hearts will praise in the darkness,
And sing in the prison of pain. [Refrain]

3 For He who has sent thee the sunshine,
Sends also the shadows and grief;
Give thanks for the gifts of His giving,
And trust to His love for relief. [Refrain]
