New Songs of Pentecost No. 2 ‎#32

32. The Light That Never Fails

1 There’s a light that never fails,
Shining o’er the hills and vales,
Of the rugged pathway over which we go;
And its rays are ever bright,
Lighting up the darkest night,
‘Tis the light of heaven shining here below.

Refrain:
Wondrous light that never fails,
Guiding light that never fails;
Gleaming from the throne above,
Golden rays of perfect love,,
‘Tis the wondrous light that never, never fails.

2 There’s a light that never fails,
Gleaming out thro’ stormy gales,
As they beat upon this little bark of mine;
And it guides me safely home,
Far across the raging foam,
‘Tis the bright and shining light of Love Divine. [Refrain]

3 There’s a light that never fails,
When the gloom of death prevails
And the valley of the shadow dark we tread;
It will banish tears away,
And will turn our light today,
‘Tis the light of life in Christ our Living Head. [Refrain]
