Sun is Shining is a 1971 song by Bob Marley and the Wailers.
This is not a “Come to Jamaica” tourism ad. This is a song of praise, thanking Jah for the sunshine and for another day.
Whether you sing it or listen to it, it can remind you to thank Jah (God, Jehovah, Allah, the Creator, the Universe or whatever you want to call Him/Her/It) for another day, for the sunshine, for this morning’s rising and for another breath.
Here are its lyrics.

***

Sun is shining, the weather is sweet
Make you want to move your dancing feet
To the rescue, here I am
Want you to know, y'all, where I stand

(Monday morning)
Here I am
Want you to know just if you can
(Tuesday evening)
Where I stand
(Wednesday morning)
Tell myself a new day is rising
(Thursday evening)
Get on the rise, a new day is dawning
(Friday morning)
Here I am
(Saturday evening)
Want you to know just
Want you to know just where I stand

When the morning gathers the rainbow
Want you to know I'm a rainbow too
So, to the rescue, here I am
Want you to know just if you can
Where I stand
No, no, no, no, no, no, no, no

We'll lift our heads and give Jah praises
We'll lift our heads and give Jah praises, yeah

Sun is shining, weather is sweet
Make you want to move your dancing feet
To the rescue, here I am
Want you to know just if you can
Where I stand
No, no, no, no, where I stand

(Monday morning)
Scoo-ba doop scoop-scoop
(Tuesday evening)
Scoo-ba doop scoop-scoop
(Wednesday morning)
Scoo-ba doop scoop-scoop
(Thursday evening)
Scoo-ba doop scoop-scoop
(Friday morning)
Scoo-ba doop scoop-scoop
(Saturday evening)
A-scoo-ba doop scoop-scoop

So, to the rescue
To the rescue
To the rescue, alright

Awake from your sleep and slumber
Today could bring your lucky number

Sun is shining (and the weather is sweet)
Sun is shining (and the weather is sweet)
Sun is shining (and the weather is sweet)
Sun is shining
