Beautiful Sunbeams

Beautiful Sunbeams l.ents, Oregon Beautiful sunbeams, so pure and so bright, Filling our hearts with the purest delight, Waking the flowers from sweetest repose, Shading the rainbow and tinting the rose, Always an angel of mercy thou art, Ever thy mission to gladden the heart, Sending thy love-light to every domain, Changing the fields into ripe golden grain. Wonderful orbit, so pure and so bright, Always returning to chase away night, Sometimes retreating in frolicksome glee, Shining alike on the bond and the free. Life without thee would be one dreary night, Beautiful — beautiful — beautiful light. Wonderful — wonderful — wonderful light, Sunbeams of mercy, angels of light, God in His mercy hath given to thee, Light for our footsteps on land and o'er sea, Always resplendent in heaven thy throne, Naught can remove thee, but God's hand alone.
