Songs of Praise ‎#88

88. All the toil and sorrow done Alleluia

ALL the toil and sorrow done, 𝘈𝘭𝘭𝘦𝘭𝘶𝘺𝘢 !
All the battle fought and won, 𝘈𝘭𝘭𝘦𝘭𝘶𝘺𝘢 !
Now behind we leave the past, 𝘈𝘭𝘭𝘦𝘭𝘶𝘺𝘢 !
Forward be our glances cast, 𝘈𝘭𝘭𝘦𝘭𝘶𝘺𝘢 !

2. Still his words before us range,
Through the ages as they change;
Wheresoe'er the truth will lead,
He will give the light we need.

3. Evermore in heart and mind,
We our life in him will find;
To our own eternal Friend,
Evermore let us ascend.
