Good Cheer

Author: Margarette Snodgrass Hymnal: Good Will #52 (1882) First Line: Joy there is in ev'ry sorrow Lyrics: 1 Joy there is in ev’ry sorrow, Courage for the hearts that faint; Let us, then, along the pathway, Murmur not, nor make complaint; Plans of God are sure unfolding, Tho’ we may not understand, Let us be like little children, Clinging to our Father’s hand. 2 If the way had been less thorny, Or beset with fewer snares, We might then have been less watchful, Less in earnest in our pray’rs; Lost the rest that follows labor, Joy that comes with quick’ning life; Missed the victor’s song of triumph That succeeds the battle’s strife. 3 Faith will lighten any darkness, Love will soothe in ev’ry pain; Let us catch the gleams of brightness, Tho’ they shine thro’ drops of rain; By and by the clouds will vanish, Each in its appointed time; Glorious are the heights above us, Daily upward let us climb. Languages: English Tune Title: [Joy there is in ev'ry sorrow]
