Representative Text

1 O the brightness and the glory of love that came to me,
On the morning of that bright and happy day,
When I found my blessed Saviour whose pardon made me free,
Now, there’s bright and blessed sunlight all the way.

Refrain:
There is sunlight, sunlight, beaming bright and clear
In the sweetness of his service day by day,
There is sunlight, sunlight, with my Saviour near,
There is bright and blessed sunlight all the way.

2 In this wonderful salvation, and his redeeming grace,
I have peace and joy, and nothing can dismay;
In the comfort of his presence, the shining of his face
There is bright and blessed sunlight all the way. [Refrain]

3 ’Tis the hope of joys eternal when life on earth is done
Fills my soul with strength and courage in the fray;
So I’ll shout a glad hosanna! for every vict’ry won
And the bright and blessed sunlight all the way. [Refrain]
