Lord, thank you for the sun
With its warmth and light
Shining through the sky
Pushing back the night.
Don’t let me go a day
When its light in full view
Neglects to remind me
That all good comes from You.
And when there are dark days,
Where the clouds hide the sun,
Let me rejoice that
I can trust in You, the one,
Who holds the light and the night
Close within His hand,
Who sends forth every blessing
And can understand
Each tear that we shed,
Each trouble we bear,
Who will lead us through
In His tender care.
For your Father sent His son
To light our way
We must stop and praise Him
Every one of our days.
