What We Need Is Sunshine – Hymn Lyric
What we need is sunshine, sunshine ev’ry day,
Tho’ the clouds may hover, all along the way;
Still the sun is shining, just beyond your view,
Look above the shadows, where the sky is blue.
Refrain:
Sunshine, sunshine, all the way,
Sunshine, sunshine, ev’ry day;
In this world of sadness,
There is joy and gladness,
If we scatter sunshine on the way.
You may scatter sunshine, tho’ your heart is sad,
While you’re helping others, you will be made glad;
For the “cup of water” given in His name,
Joy to you will bring, like sunshine after rain.
[Refrain]
Live above the shadows, lest they mar your life,
Live above the world, with all its sin and strife;
Sow the seeds of kindness, banish petty care,
Scatter then His blessed sunshine ev’rywhere.
[Refrain]
Meaning of What We Need Is Sunshine
What We Need Is Sunshine
In this big world full of ups and downs, it’s easy to get caught up in the clouds of sadness and despair. But what if I told you that even when the skies appear grey, there’s always a glimmer of sunshine just waiting to burst through and brighten your day? Yes, my friend, what we need is sunshine, sunshine every day!
Imagine a world where the sun is always shining, where happiness and joy are abundant. Sounds like a dream, doesn’t it? But the truth is, even on the dreariest of days, the sun is still shining above those thick clouds. Just like life, sometimes we can’t see the light, but it’s always there, just beyond our view.
Just like the hymn says, “Still the sun is shining, just beyond your view, Look above the shadows, where the sky is blue.” Isn’t that a beautiful thought? No matter how challenging life may be, there is always a place where the sky is blue and the sun is shining brightly. All we have to do is lift our gaze and let the sunshine in.
But how do we find that sunshine when we feel weighed down by sadness or difficulty? Well, my friend, the answer lies in scattering sunshine on the way and helping others. It may seem counterintuitive, but when we focus on bringing joy to others, our own hearts can’t help but be lifted. It’s like a magical equation the more love and kindness we give, the more joy and gladness will fill our own hearts.
Even if our own hearts are heavy with sorrow, we can still find ways to bring sunshine to others. Just like a cup of water given in His name, even the tiniest act of kindness can brighten someone’s day and bring a smile to their face. And what’s amazing is that in return, it brings us joy and happiness, just like sunshine after rain.
Yes, my friend, live above the shadows, lest they mar your life. Instead of getting caught up in the negativity that surrounds us, let’s rise above it and find our own little piece of sunshine. We can choose to live above the world, with all its sin and strife, by sowing the seeds of kindness and banishing petty care. In doing so, we become beacons of light, scattering His blessed sunshine everywhere we go.
So, let’s make a promise to ourselves let’s be the sunshine this world so desperately needs. Let’s bring joy and gladness into the lives of those around us, even when our own hearts feel sad. Together, we can make this world a brighter place, one act of kindness at a time.
Remember, my friend, what we need is sunshine, sunshine every day. And that sunshine can be found within ourselves and within the kindness we share with others. So, let’s keep our eyes on the sky, look beyond the shadows, and be the sunshine this world is longing for.
Sunshine, sunshine, all the way,
Sunshine, sunshine, every day;
In this world of sadness,
There is joy and gladness,
If we scatter sunshine on the way.
