Sing Away the Shadows

Sing away the sha­dows

Flitting o’er the sky;

Sing of star­ry com­forts

In the by and by!

Sing of love un­fail­ing

Mercies ev­er new;

Pardon

peace and bless­ing

Guidance kind and true.

Sing away

sing away

Hopeful be the lay;

Sing away the sha­dows

Flitting o’er the sky;

Sing away

sing away

Trusting eve­ry day;

Sing of star­ry com­forts

In the by and by.

Sing away the sha­dows

Anxious doubt and fear;

Sing the Sav­ior’s pro­mise

Bringing sweet­est cheer:

Trust the heav’n­ly Fa­ther

He for you will care

More than for the spar­rows

Or the li­lies fair.

Sing away the sha­dows

Selfish they may be;

Love’s own hap­py mu­sic

Brings the light so free

Lift ano­ther’s bur­den

Soothe ano­ther’s woe

Sharing with your neigh­bor

Joy’s re­turn­ing glow.
