JESUS WANTS ME FOR A SUNBEAM

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

Jesus wants me for a sunbeam
to shine for Him each day,
In every way try to please Him
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.

Jesus wants me to be lovely
And kind to all I see
Showing how pleasant and happy
His little one can be

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

I will ask Jesus to help me
To keep my heart from sin
Ever reflecting His goodness
And always shine for Him

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

I'll be a sunbeam for Jesus
I know I can if I try
Serving Him moment by moment
Then live with Him on high.

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

HIS EYE IS ON THE SPARROW

Why should I feel discouraged, why should the shadows come,
Why should my heart be lonely, and long for heav’n and home,
When Jesus is my portion? My constant Friend is He:
His eye is on the sparrow, and I know He watches me;
His eye is on the sparrow, and I know He watches me.

Refrain:
I sing because I’m happy, I sing because I’m free,
His eye is on the sparrow, and I know He watches me.
His eye is on the sparrow, and I know He watches me.

“Let not your heart be troubled,” His tender word I hear,
And resting on His goodness, I lose my doubts and fears;
Though by the path He leadeth, but one step I may see;
His eye is on the sparrow, and I know He watches me;
His eye is on the sparrow, and I know He watches me.

(Refrain)

Whenever I am tempted, whenever clouds arise,
When songs give place to sighing, when hope within me dies,
I draw the closer to Him, from care He sets me free;
His eye is on the sparrow, and I know He watches me;
His eye is on the sparrow, and I know He watches me.

(Refrain 2x)

JOYFUL, JOYFUL

Joyful, joyful, we adore thee,
God of glory, Lord of love;
hearts unfold like flowers before thee,
opening to the sun above.
Melt the clouds of sin and sadness;
drive the dark of doubt away.
Giver of immortal gladness,
fill us with the light of day!

All thy works with joy surround thee,
earth and heaven reflect thy rays,
stars and angels sing around thee,
center of unbroken praise.
Field and forest, vale and mountain,
flowery meadow, flashing sea,
singing bird and flowing fountain,
call us to rejoice in thee.

Thou art giving and forgiving,
ever blessing, ever blest,
well-spring of the joy of living,
ocean depth of happy rest!
Thou our Father, Christ our Brother,
all who live in love are Thine;
teach us how to love each other,
lift us to the Joy Divine.

Mortals, join the happy chorus
with the morning stars began;
Father Love is reigning o'er us,
Brother Love binds man to man.
Ever singing, march we onward,
victors in the midst of strife;
joyful music leads us sunward,
in the triumph song of life.

La la la la la la la la la la...

ALL THINGS BRIGHT AND BEAUTIFUL

Refrain:
All things bright and beautiful,
All creatures great and small,
All things wise and wonderful:
The Lord God made them all.

Each little flow’r that opens,
Each little bird that sings,
He made their glowing colors,
He made their tiny wings.

(Refrain)

The purple-headed mountains,
The river running by,
The sunset and the morning
That brightens up the sky.

(Refrain)

The cold wind in the winter,
The pleasant summer sun,
The ripe fruits in the garden,
He made them every one.

(Refrain)

The tall trees in the greenwood,
The meadows where we play,
The rushes by the water,
To gather every day.

(Refrain)

He gave us eyes to see them,
And lips that we might tell
How great is God Almighty,
Who has made all things so well.

(Refrain 3x) ( )
