Godshine Lyrics by Johnny Cash, June Carter Cash

Johnny Cash And His Woman

1973

[Verse 1]
Well a light from the sun comes shining
Oh happy day oh happy day
And then along come a big old moon to light my way
And then the stars kind of twinkle and they light this path of mine
And mine
I can't see a thing in his world without a little Godshine

[Chorus]
Well Jesus is the beam on the left of me
Coming right through the shadow on the right
Lord all the dark corners within my soul need you fire day and night
Well the sun and the moon and the stars wouldn't even hold a candle in my life
I'm in the dark when the sun is high
I need just a little bit of Godshine

[Verse 2]
Well Jesus died and there's a lot of folks feel regret
But on the other hand there are people that are laughing yet
Laughing about a man that lived and died divine
He could have lived on but he wouldn't stop spreading that Godshine

[Chorus][x2]

[Outro]
I'm in the dark when the sun is high I need just a little bit of Godshine
