Scatter Sunshine

Lanta Wilson Smith • English

Primary Scripture: Proverbs 17:22

Verse 1

In a world where sorrow Ever will be known, Where are found the needy, And the sad and lone; How much joy and comfort You can all bestow, If you scatter sunshine Ev'rywhere you go.

Chorus

Scatter sunshine all along the way, Cheer and bless and brighten Ev'ry paasing day; Scatter sunshine all along the way, Cheer and bless and brighten Ev'ry passing day.

Verse 2

Slightest actions often Meet the sorest needs, For the world wants daily Little kindly deeds; Oh, what care and sorrow You may help remove, With your songs and courage, Sympathy and love.

Chorus

Scatter sunshine all along the way, Cheer and bless and brighten Ev'ry paasing day; Scatter sunshine all along the way, Cheer and bless and brighten Ev'ry passing day.

Verse 3

When the days are gloomy Sing some happy song, Meet the world's repining With a courage strong; Go with faith undaunted, Thro' the ills of life; Scatter smiles and sunshine O'er its toil and strife.

Chorus

Scatter sunshine all along the way, Cheer and bless and brighten Ev'ry paasing day; Scatter sunshine all along the way, Cheer and bless and brighten Ev'ry passing day.
