|
|
<p>Only a beam of sunshine,<br>
|
|
But oh, it was warm and bright;<br>
|
|
The heart of a weary traveler<br>
|
|
Was cheered by its welcome sight.<br>
|
|
Only a beam of sunshine;<br>
|
|
That fell from the arch above:<br>
|
|
And tenderly, softly whispered<br>
|
|
A message of peace and love.</p>
|
|
<p class="refrain">Refrain</p>
|
|
<p class="refrain">Only a word for Jesus,<br>
|
|
Only a whispered prayer,<br>
|
|
Over some grief worn spirit<br>
|
|
May rest like a sunbeam fair!</p>
|
|
<p>Only a beam of sunshine<br>
|
|
That into a dwelling crept;<br>
|
|
Where, over a fading rosebud,<br>
|
|
A mother her vigil kept.<br>
|
|
Only a beam of sunshine<br>
|
|
That smiled through her falling tears,<br>
|
|
And showed her the bow of promise,<br>
|
|
Forgotten perhaps for years.</p>
|
|
<p class="refrain">Refrain</p>
|
|
<p>Only a word for Jesus,<br>
|
|
Oh, speak it in His dear Name,<br>
|
|
To perishing souls around you<br>
|
|
The message of love proclaim.<br>
|
|
Go, like the faithful sunbeam,<br>
|
|
Your mission of joy fulfill;<br>
|
|
Remember the Savior’s promise,<br>
|
|
That He will be with you still.</p>
