Author: Eliza E. Hewitt Hymnal: Timeless Truths #201 Meter: 14.13.14.11.9.9.11.8 First Line: All the future years are held within the Father's keeping Refrain First Line: Love is shining all along our way Lyrics: 1 All the future years are held within the Father’s keeping;
On the pages yet unturned, we cannot read a line;
But His promises, like stars, will light the night of weeping;
All along our pilgrim way, His word will shine.
Refrain:
Love is shining all along our way;
God is caring for us every day;
Lord, whatever changes in our lives may be,
Oh, may our hearts be stayed on Thee!
2 Press with courage on your way, for Jesus goes before us;
He will strengthen us anew, for tasks He may assign;
Let the children of the King ring out a happy chorus;
All along our pilgrim way, His grace will shine. [Refrain]
3 Ever will we trust His word, and trust our Father’s caring;
Ever will we rest our faith upon His truth divine;
Looking to the mercy seat, in joy we go declaring,
All along our pilgrim way, His love will shine. [Refrain] Scripture: 1 Peter 5:7 Tune Title: [All the future years are held within the Father's keeping]
Love Is Shining
