The Vale of Content
Author: E. A. H. Hymnal: Praise and Promise #20 (1900) First Line: There's a vale of content and of heavenly peace Refrain First Line: I have entered this vale of contentment so sweet Lyrics: 1 There’s a vale of content and of heavenly peace,
Where those who love Jesus abide,
Where the friends of the Lord share His fellowship sweet,
And linger in joy by His side.
Refrain:
I have entered this vale of contentment so sweet,
And life now is sunshine alway,
For the presence of Christ makes it heaven to me,
And I’m happy in Him night and day.
2 I was long years a stranger to peace and content,
And lived in the darkness and night,
But have found at the last in this beautiful vale
A life of unending delight. [Refrain]
3 I am restful and calm whatsoever befall,
Content in each trouble and care;
Christ may lead into sorrow and trial and pain,
His love cheers my heart even here. [Refrain] Languages: English Tune Title: [There's a vale of content and of heavenly peace]
