Rays of Sunshine

Author: Pemberton Pierce Appears in 2 hymnals First Line: Rays of sunshine softly beaming Lyrics: 1 Rays of sunshine softly beaming Thro’ the passing hours of day, Filling all the earth with beauty, Till the daylight fades away; Rays of sunshine softly beaming In our hearts from heav’n above, Filling us with sacred feeling Of a Saviour’s dying love: Filling us with sacred feeling Of a Saviour’s dying love. 2 Rays of sunshine brightly beaming Thro’ the realms of God above, While the hosts of shining spirits Chant the glories of His love; Soon in yonder blessed regions We shall all our praises sing: Hallelujah! countless legions Shall make heav’n’s high arches ring: Hallelujah! countless legions Shall make heav’n’s high arches ring.
