Author: Ada Blenkhorn Hymnal: United Praise #2 (1908) First Line: When the dark clouds of trouble pass over Lyrics: 1 When the dark clouds of trouble pass over,
And the sun shines again in the blue;
Oh, rejoice in God’s love, and remember,
It was just what he promised to do.
Refrain:
It was just what he promised to do,
Our Savior so faithful and true;
Oh, rejoice in his love, and remember,
It was just what he promised to do.
2 When the rivers of sorrow run deepest,
And in safety he beareth you thro’,
On the shores of his mercy, remember,
It was just what he promised to do. [Refrain]
3 As you daily go forth to the conflict,
By his might every foe he’ll subdue;
In the glad day of vict’ry, remember,
It was just what he promised to do. [Refrain]
4 At the close of this life’s little journey,
When his glory shall burst on your view,
As you enter his presence, remember,
It was just what he promised to do. [Refrain] Tune Title: [When the dark clouds of trouble]
It Was Just What He Promised to Do
