If Je­sus leads this ar­my,
If you’ll give your heart to Je­sus,
I have work enough to do
The clouds can dark­en but awhile,
start
Turn to Je­sus for relief,
And the fall of dew.
Still bright­er were that Light di­vine.
We’re ninety-three million miles from
Till Christ has all the na­tions blest
Even God’s all ho­ly la­bor
How sweet the word the prophet brings:
But unto you who fear My name

the sun

We will out­shine the sun,
You will out­shine the sun,
For my­self and kin­dred, too,
Refrain (Quar­tet)
It gilds the heav­ens wide,
Shine bright­ly thro’ the gloom.
After the rain the sun;
Rejoice, my soul, in Je­sus’ birth!
The awesome earth is tilted twenty-three—
Great Sun of Right­eous­ness, arise,
Built our earth on deep foun­da­tions,
With healing in His wings.
With healing in His wings,
