At home, at school, at play.

A sunbeam, a sunbeam,
Jesus wants me for a sunbeam;
A sunbeam, a sunbeam,
I'll be a sunbeam for Him.

And kind to all I see;
Showing how pleasant and happy
His little one can be. [Refrain]

To keep my heart from sin,
Ever reflecting His goodness,
And always shine for Him. [Refrain]

Then live with Him on high. [Refrain] Topics: The Living Church Children's Hymns; Children; Testimony Scripture: Psalm 103:13 Languages: English Tune Title: I'LL BE A SUNBEAM
