There can be no thanks without giving, No words without deeds that are done. 6 Then teach us, O Lord of the harvest, To be humble in all that we claim; To share what we have with the nations, To care for the world in your name.

Refrain: Scatter the blessed sunshine, Scatter its light along, It will cheer and brighten, As you pass it on; Scatter the blessed sunshine, Scatter its light along, It will cheer and brighten, As you pass it on. 2 Loving words, when spoken, Passing down the years; Help to raise the fallen, Check the dropping tears, Little deeds of kindness, Little words of love Make the pathway brighter, To our home above.

Brighten up the pathway, With a smile or song; Help the fallen brother, Pass the kindness on. [Refrain] Topics: Children Languages: English Tune Title: [Scatter smiles and sunshine]
