64. The Sunshine of His Face

1 Courage, brother, light is breaking,
Let no more thy head be bowed,
For there is a flood of sunshine
Just behind the darkening cloud;
It matters not the low’ring tempest,
How fierce and swift the lightning chase;
Jesus standeth, watching ready,
To show the sunshine of His face.

Refrain:
O, the sunshine, the sunshine is for you and for me,
Let not the cloud of sin and doubt
Hide the sunshine of His face from thee.

2 Courage, brother, light is breaking,
Though thy cross doth weigh thee down,
Know that there is One who cometh
Faithfulness and love to crown;
It matters not if road be thorny,
Or sinking sands retard thy pace;
Jesus standeth, watching ready,
To show the sunshine of His face. [Refrain]

3 Courage, brother, light is breaking,
Doubt and unbelief shall flee;
Take the promise of salvation,
God is gracious, taste and see;
It matters not if men are saying
There is no Saviour in thy case;
Jesus standeth, watching ready,
To show the sunshine of His face. [Refrain]
