Up Yonder

Margarette W. Snodgrass • English

Primary Scripture: Psalm 36:9

Verse 1

Tho’ our pathway may be dreary, Yonder there is light; And a Hand when we are weary, Reaching through the night.

Chorus

There are worlds of light up yonder, There is always light up yonder, In the darkest night; There are worlds of light, If we lift our eyes up yonder.

Verse 2

Never then despair or wonder; Only day by day; As the darkness drifts asunder, We shall find our way.

Chorus

There are worlds of light up yonder, There is always light up yonder, In the darkest night; There are worlds of light, If we lift our eyes up yonder.

Verse 3

One has trod the steps before us, Marking all the way; While his watchful care is o’er us, We need never stray.

Chorus

There are worlds of light up yonder, There is always light up yonder, In the darkest night; There are worlds of light, If we lift our eyes up yonder.
