Open Up Your Heart (and Let the Sunshine In)
by Stuart Hamblen
[Verse]
Mommy told me something a little girl should know,
It s all about the devil and I ve learned to hate him so.
She said he causes trouble when you let him in the room,
He will never ever leave you if your heart is filled with gloom.
[Chorus]
So let the sunshine in, face it with a grin,
smilers never lose, and frowners never win.
--
So let the sunshine in, face it with a grin,
open up your heart and let the sunshine in.
[Verse]
When you are unhappy the devil wears a grin,
But oh, he starts to running when the light comes pouring in.
I know he ll be unhappy cause I ll never wear a frown,
Maybe if we keep on smiling he ll get tired of hanging round.
[Chorus]
So let the sunshine in, face it with a grin,
smilers never lose, and frowners never win.
--
So let the sunshine in, face it with a grin,
open up your heart and let the sunshine in.
[Verse]
If I forget to say my prayers the devil jumps with glee,
But he feels so awful, awful when he sees me on my knees.
So if you re full of trouble and you never seem to win,
Just open up your heart and let the sunshine in.
[Chorus]
So let the sunshine in, face it with a grin,
smilers never lose, and frowners never win.
--
So let the sunshine in, face it with a grin,
open up your heart and let the sunshine in.

Let The sunshine in
