Golden Promises

1 Like the glitter of the sunbeams,
On the hilltops far away,
Is the promise of the Father,
Of the rest of endless day.

Refrain:
Golden promises of light!
Precious pearls of peace and hope!
After hours of darkest night,
Morning’s beauteous gates they ope!

2 Like the cooling breeze of even,
After hours of burning heat,
Is the promise of the Father,
With its message calm and sweet. [Refrain]

3 Like the incense of the flowers,
Blossoming in early spring,
Are the promises of Heaven,
With the comforts blest they bring. [Refrain]
