There's a Light › Representative Texts

1 There’s a light on clouds of sadness,
And a rose for ev’ry thorn,
When the Lord is near, giving songs of cheer,
Till our hearts no longer mourn;
There’s a gleam of heav’nly gladness,
Tho’ all other lights should fail,
When we know the love of the King above,
Love that ever shall prevail.

Refrain:
Hallelujah! Hallelujah!
He has pardoned all our sin;
Hallelujah! Hallelujah!
There’s abiding peace within;
We are happy in our Saviour,
And rejoicing in His love;
hallelujah! Hallelujah
To our blessed Friend above!

2 WE will bridge the vale of sorrow
With the promises of God;
Words so strong and sure evermore endure,
Spreading hope and cheer abroad;
And we know the bright tomorrow
Will outshine the noonday sun;
For the Lord of light drives away the night,
While eternal ages run. [Refrain]

3 Let us gladden pathways lonely
With a radiance from the sky;
Let the smiling face be a means of grace,
To the weary passerby;
WE will live for Jesus only,
And His joy our strength shall be;
Till we meet at last, ev’ry trial past,
Where His beauty we shall see. [Refrain]
