All On A Golden Summer Day

All on a golden summer day, As through the leaves a single ray Of yellow sunshine finds its way So bright, so bright; The wakened birds that blithely sing Seem welcoming another spring; While all the woods are murmuring So light, so light. All on a golden summer day, When to my heart a single ray Of tender kindness finds its way, So bright, so bright; Then comes sweet hope and bravely dares To break the chain that sorrow wears— And all my burdens, all my cares Are light, so light!
