95. You can be a sunbeam

1 You can be a sunbeam
If you only try;
You can shed some brightness
O'er a clouded sky.

[Refrain]:
You can be a sunbeam,
In His presence nigh;
You can be a sunbeam,
If you'll only try.

2 You can cast a sunbeam,
O'er a darkened life;
You can share the sorrow
Of its troubled strife. [Refrain]

3 You can be a sunbeam,
Shining evermore,
Till your heav'nly brightness
Spreads from shore to shore. [Refrain]

4 You can be a sunbeam
In your little world;
You can bear love's banner
Evermore unfurled. [Refrain]

5 You can be a sunbeam,
Till this life is done;
Heaven then will claim you,
For the crown you've won. [Refrain]
