243. Heavenly Sunlight

1 Walking in sunlight all of my journey,
Over the mountains, through the deep vale;
Jesus has said, "I’ll never forsake thee,"
Promise divine that never can fail.

Refrain:
Heavenly sunlight, heavenly sunlight,
Flooding my soul with glory divine;
Hallelujah! I am rejoicing,
Singing His praises, Jesus is mine!

2 Shadows around me, shadows above me
Never conceal my Saviour and Guide;
He is the Light, in Him is no darkness;
Ever I’m walking close to His side. (Refrain)

3 In the bright sunlight, ever rejoicing,
Pressing my way to mansions above;
Singing His praises, gladly I’m walking,
Walking in sunlight, sunlight of love. (Refrain)
