Answer:
Words and music are given in Zuchtmann, Frederick. New American Music Reader. New York: Macmillan, 1903, page 29:

GOOD MORNING, MERRY SUNSHINE.
G. Ambrose

Good morning, merry sunshine,
How did you wake so soon?
You've scared the little stars away,
And shined away the moon;
I saw you go to sleep last night
Before I ceased my play;
How did you get way over here,
And pray, where did you stay?

I never go to sleep, dear child,
I just go round to see,
My little children of the East,
Who rise and watch for me;
I waken all the birds and bees,
And flowers on my way,
And now come back to see the child,
Who stayed out late at play.

A text-only version is given in the Annual Report of the [New York] State Board of Charities for the Year 1894, Albany, 1895, page 272.
