CATCH THE SUNSHINE.

By Star of Hope

CATCH the sunshine, tho the shadows All around you thickly lie; Close behind is God's sweet sunshine Brightly beaming in the sky. Catch that bright beam—soon 'twill vanish, All too quickly pass away, Leaving yet a deeper shadow Where its shining presence lay.
Catch the sunshine, tho it glistens Through a dark and fearful cloud; It has come to bring sweet solace To a heart in sorrow bowed. Don't give up to gloom and anguish, Do not yield to being sad; Look! there comes a gleam of sunshine, Catch it—O, it seems so glad!
Catch the sunshine, it is glowing All around you in the air; Only look for it—you'll find it Lurking, sparkling everywhere. Blessed sunshine! how it gladdens All the dark spots by the way, Playing “hide and seek” with sorrow, Chasing guilt and sin away!
—Star of Hope.
