WHEN LOVE SHINES IN

Jesus comes with power to gladden,
when love shines in,
Every life that woe can sadden,
when love shines in.
Love will teach us how to pray,
love will drive the gloom away,
Turn our darkness into day,
when love shines in.

When love shines in,
when love shines in,
How the heart is tuned to singing,
when love shines in,
When love shines in,
when love shines in,
Joy and peace to others bringing,
when love shines in.

How the world will grow with beauty,
when love shines in,
And the heart rejoice in duty,
when love shines in.
Trials may be sanctified,
and the soul in peace abide,
Life will all be glorified,
when love shines in.

Darkest sorrow will grow brighter,
when love shines in,
And the heaviest burden lighter,
when love shines in.
’Tis the glory that will throw
light to show us where to go;
O, the heart shall blessing know,
when love shines in.

MY FAITH LOOKS UP TO THEE

My faith looks up to Thee,
Thou Lamb of Calvary,
Saviour divine:
Now hear me while I pray;
Take all my guilt away;
O let me from this day
Be wholly Thine.

May Thy rich grace impart
Strength to my fainting heart,
My zeal inspire,
As Thou hast died for me,
O may my love to Thee
pure, warm, and changeless be,
A living fire.

NOAH'S WEARY DOVE

Like Noah's weary dove
That soared the earth around,
But not a resting place above
The cheerless waters found,

Oh, cease, my wandering soul,
On restless wing to roam;
All the wide world, to either pole,
Has not for thee a home.

Behold the ark of God,
Behold the open door;
Hasten to gain that dear abode,
And rove, my soul, no more.
