The Sun is a Pleasant Sight


 I opened the door in the morning
And in came God's beautiful sun.
It was dressed as in gold, a sight to behold;
I saw it was second to none.
It illumined the entire kitchen
With its radiant, all-day smile,
And I saw on its face as I stood there
That it come by to stay for awhile.

As it entered, I greeted it gladly;
Now gone was the dark of the night.
'Twas a pleasure to see its bright beauty;
Oh, it was a sunshiny sight.
It dusted its sunbeams upon me
And stayed with me all day through;
Then it left at the evening sunset
To shine on somebody new.

~ Loise Pinkerton Fritz

Truly the light is sweet,
and a pleasant thing
it is for the eyes
to behold the sun.
Eccl. 11:7
