Gospel Herald in Song ‎#31

31. Look Up, Happy Christian

1 Look up, happy Christian, look up to the sky,
The Father who loves us is reigning on high;
Whatever may happen, whatever befall,
The light of His mercy is shining for all.

Refrain:
Beautiful light, heavenly light,
The true light is shining for you and for me,
Wonderful light, glorious light,
Shining for you and me.

2 When failures and sins in this light we discern,
With humble confiding to Jesus we turn;
His blood is the fountain that cleanseth from sin,
His grace is the power that shall vict’ry win. [Refrain]

3 We’ll walk in the light, blessed guide to our feet,
With God and each other, in fellowship sweet;
And while we rejoice in the bright Gospel day,
We’ll seek those who wander in darkness astray. [Refrain]
