Hymn for Sunday

Heavenly Sunlight

Words by: Henry J. Zelley, 1859-1942
Music by: George H. Cook, ?-1948


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


Heavenly sunlight, heavenly sunlight,

Flooding my soul with glory divine!

Hallelujah! I am rejoicing,
Singing His praises. Jesus is mine.

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.


Heavenly sunlight, heavenly sunlight,

Flooding my soul with glory divine!

Hallelujah! I am rejoicing,
Singing His praises. Jesus is mine.

In the bright sunlight, ever rejoicing,
Pressing my way to mansions above;

Singing His praises, gladly I'm walking.

Walking sunlight, sunlight of love.


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