Sing with Me, p. G-1
Catch the Sunshine

1. Catch the sunshine! tho’ it flickers Thro’ a dark and dismal cloud, Tho’ it falls so faint and feeble On a heart with sorrow bowed. Catch it quickly! it is passing; Passing rapidly away; It has only come to tell you There is yet a brighter day.

2. Catch the sunshine! tho’ life’s tempest May unfurl its chilling blast, Catch the little, hopeful straggler Storms will not forever last; Don’t give up and say “forsaken!” Don’t begin and say “I’m sad!” Look! there comes a gleam of sunshine! Catch it! oh, it seems so glad.

3. Catch the sunshine! don’t be grieving O’er that darksome billow there! Life’s a sea of stormy billows, We must meet them ev’rywhere. Pass right thro’ them, do not tarry, Overcome the heaving tide, There’s a sparkling gleam of sunshine Waiting on the other side.
