Beams of Heaven

Staying true to the theme of 'Other People's Music', here is an offering for you... hope it is good to you. It's been good to me.

Beams of heaven as I go | Through the wilderness below | Guide my feet in peaceful ways | Turn my midnights into days...

When in the darkness I would grope | Faith always sees a star of hope | And soon from all life's grief and danger | I shall be free someday... 

I shall be free someday.

Oftentimes my sky is clear | Joy abounds without a tear | Though a day so bright begun | Clouds may hide tomorrow's sun...

There'll be a day that's always bright | A day that never yields to night | And in its light the streets of glory | I shall behold someday...

I shall behold someday.

Harder yet may be the fight | Right may often yield to might | Wickedness a while may reign | Satan's cause may seem to gain...

There is a God that rules above | With hand of power and heart of love | And if I'm right, He'll fight my battle | I shall have peace someday...

Someday.

Burdens now may crush me down | Disappointments all around | Troubles speak in mournful sigh | Sorrow through a tear-stained eye...

There is a world where pleasure reigns | No mourning soul shall roam its plains | And to that land of peace and glory | I shall want to go someday...

Someday.
