55. A Rainbow on the Cloud

1 Be not weary or cast down,
When the heavens seem to frown,
There’s a rainbow on the cloud for you!
‘Tis an arch of promise bright,
Earnest of unfading light,
Pouring from a sky of radiant blue.

Refrain:
There’s a rainbow on the cloud for you,
There’s a promise that is sure and true;
Yes, the storm will pass away,
There will dawn a brighter day,
There’s a rainbow on the cloud for you.

2 He whose word rebuked the storm,
Now is able to perform
Ev’ry word He whispers to your heart;
Wholly lean upon Him, then,
For the sun will shine again,
And the shadows evermore depart. [Refrain]

3 There’s a rainbow on the cloud!
Tho’ your soul is sorrow-bowed,
Lift your voice to praise the Lord today;
There’s a rainbow ’round the throne;
In its glory we will own
That He led us in His perfect way. [Refrain]
