Heavenly Sunlight

One of the things I love about the nursing home is I get to sing great old hymns. Some I have never heard before and yet the residents don't even need the books! This is one I have never heard so I was thankful I have learned to sight read over the years.... oh my the second verse I can barely read let alone sing ...

1~Walking in sunlight, all of my journey
Over the mountains,thru the deep vale
Jesus has said, "I'll never forsake thee,"
Promise divine that never can fail.

Heavenly sunlight, Heavenly sunlight
Flooding my soul with glory divine
Hallelujah, I am rejoicing,
Singing His praises, Jesus is mine.

2~Shadows around me, shadows above me,
Never conceal my Savior and Guide.
He is the light in Him is no darkness
Ever I'm walking close to His side.

Heavenly sunlight, Heavenly sunlight
Flooding my soul with glory divine
Hallelujah, I am rejoicing,
Singing His praises, Jesus is mine.

3~In the bright sunlight, ever rejoicing,
Pressing my way to mansions above
Singing His praises gladly I'm walking
Walking in sunlight, sunlight of love.

Heavenly sunlight, Heavenly sunlight
Flooding my soul with glory divine
Hallelujah, I am rejoicing,
Singing His praises, Jesus is mine.
