Daylight shines through at last
Running right through my past
I know that everything is alright
Oh because the lord let the sun shine down on me
Oh because the lord let the sun shine on you and me
Crying, it now don't seem right
I gained back my soul and my appetite
I'm happy like I've never been before
Oh because the lord let the sun shine down on me
Oh because the lord let the sun shine on you and me
I know I was crazy
Never did a right thing at all
I know I let my mind go lazy
I let my spirit fall
I know there were some things wrong
But now it seems they've truly gone
Cause the lord let the sun shine down on me
Oh because the lord let the sun shine down on me
Said, now smile everybody, don't you see it's gone
I'm surrended by good spirits day and nighttime long
And when I walk, I walk like I've just been born
Oh because the lord let the sun shine down on me
Oh because the lord let the sun shine down on me
