I Am A Beam Of Sunlight
From Plank Road Publishing
by Teresa JenningsThis very short, very simple song is perfect for your youngest singers, and it's flexible so you can use it in performance or in the classroom. The lyrics are easy and predictable, which also makes them easy to remember. Summertime with its warmth and sunny days were the inspiration for this, but who's to say it can't be used any time, even during the winter or on cloudy days? It's a nice reminder that, as the saying goes, we carry our own sunshine inside. If you use this tune, prepare to hear a few "awww's" from your audience.
Suggestions for basic actions to go with the words are indicated right on the music. While our orchestration on the recording is very sweet, you could certainly play this one live on piano. (from Music K-8, Vol. 31, No. 5)
