God Bless You
Language: English 
You bring the sunshine to my cloudy day,
You bring me comfort on my lonely way,
You bring me love, and I can only say
       God bless you!

Dear eyes that all for me so brightly shine,
Dear hands that fondly with my own entwine,
True heart that ever beats in tune with mine,
       God bless you!

Your love has made me glad and strong and free,
O world of love, and all the world to me!
God bless you now, and through the years to be
       God bless you
