“Jesus Wants Me for a Sunbeam,” Children’s Songbook of The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints, 60–61
Happily
1. Jesus wants me for a sunbeam,
To shine for him each day;
In ev’ry way try to please him,
At home, at school, at play.
2. Jesus wants me to be loving
And kind to all I see,
Showing how pleasant and happy
His little one can be.
Chorus
A sunbeam, a sunbeam,
Jesus wants me for a sunbeam.
A sunbeam, a sunbeam,
I’ll be a sunbeam for him.
Words: Nellie Talbot
Music: Edwin O. Excell, 1851–1921
