Love Is Shining

Eliza E. Hewitt • English

Primary Scripture: 1 Peter 5:7

Verse 1

All the future years are held within the Father’s keeping; On the pages yet unturned, we cannot read a line; But His promises, like stars, will light the night of weeping; All along our pilgrim way, His word will shine.

Chorus

Love is shining all along our way; God is caring for us ev’ry day; Lord, whatever changes in our lives may be, Oh, may our hearts be stayed on Thee!

Verse 2

Press with courage on your way, for Jesus goes before us; He will strengthen us anew, for tasks He may assign; Let the children of the King ring out a happy chorus; All along our pilgrim way, His grace will shine.

Chorus

Love is shining all along our way; God is caring for us ev’ry day; Lord, whatever changes in our lives may be, Oh, may our hearts be stayed on Thee!

Verse 3

Ever will we trust His word, and trust our Father’s caring; Ever will we rest our faith upon His truth divine; Looking to the mercy seat, in joy we go declaring, All along our pilgrim way, His love will shine.

Chorus

Love is shining all along our way; God is caring for us ev’ry day; Lord, whatever changes in our lives may be, Oh, may our hearts be stayed on Thee!
