O happy ones and holy! Lord, give to us the grace like them, the meek and lowly, in heaven to seek your face. Scripture: 1 Corinthians 3:11-15 Used With Tune: AURELIA

Sometimes a light surprises

Author: William Cowper Appears in 409 hymnals Topics: Christians Blessedness of; Consolation; Hope; Joy; Trials Blessings of; Trust In Providence; Trust In Providence Lyrics: 1 Sometimes a light surprises The Christian while he sings; It is the Lord, Who rises With healing in His wings; When comforts are declining, He grants the soul again A season of clear shining, To cheer it after rain. 2 In holy contemplation, We sweetly then pursue The theme of God’s salvation, And find it ever new; Set free from present sorrow, We cheerfully can say, Let an unknown to-morrow Bring with it what it may. 3 It can bring with it nothing But He will bear us through; Who gives the lilies clothing, Will clothe His people, too: Beneath the spreading heavens No creature but is fed; And He who feeds the ravens, Will give His children bread. 4 Though neither vine nor fig-tree Its wonted fruit should bear, Though all the fields should wither, Nor flocks nor herds be there; Yet God the same abiding, His praise shall tune my voice; For while in Him confiding, I cannot but rejoice. Amen. Used With Tune: EVARTS
