Living in the Sunshine (Crouse)

I am living in the sun­shine

Of my Sav­ior’s per­fect love

And by faith I see Him seat­ed

On His glo­ri­ous throne above.

There

ap­proved of God the Fa­ther

He for­ev­er pleads for me;

And His faith­ful word de­clar­eth

There is par­don full and free.

O come in­to the sun­shine of His love

Receive the great sal­va­tion from ab­ove;

It gives you glad re­lease

And fills your heart with peace;

O come in­to the sun­shine

The sun­shine of His love.

O

this sun­shine! how its glo­ry

Fills my heart with con­stant peace;

And from bond­age with­out mea­sure

It has brought me glad re­lease.

Once life’s lit­tle cares would fret me

Threatening ills my soul af­fright

But the swee­tness of this sun­shine

Makes the hea­vy cross­es light.

Gladly now my feet are run­ning

On the er­rands of my Lord;

And to do or suf­fer for Him

Deep con­tent­ment doth af­ford.

At each step the way grows bright­er

Golden glo­ry fills the sky;

In the pro­mise of His com­ing

Our re­demp­tion draw­eth nigh.
