quotations about the sun

Like the moon and the stars and the sun
Well we all shine on
Ev'ryone come on

Clearest shineth
Serenest in the heaven,
Quickly are obscured
All over the earth
Other stars.

The sun sheddeth color and grace over nature, and all that is beautiful laughs with renewed youth.
SOLOMON GESSNER
attributed, Day's Collacon

Of glory up the East he springs.

Those heavens began their march sublime,
Hath first of all the starry choir
Trod in his Maker's steps of fire!

Goading me to the Gospel
But I got no plans at all
Except to drink as soon as possible
