Rays of Hope
“The light shines in the darkness, and the darkness has not overcome it.” John 1:5
(Send as an Inspirational Christian eCard)
From behind the clouds,
Clouds dark as night,
Stream rays of hope,
Rays of Sonlight.
The warmth of the Son
Embraces my skin,
A fire of hope
Now burns within.
No cloud too heavy,
No trial too grim,
No night too dark,
No pathway too dim –
For my Savior,
As He Himself is Love;
He shines upon all
With Light from above.
O, Ray of hope,
Eternal Sonshine,
Fill us with Your Spirit,
Your light divine.
Remind us that night
Is as noonday to You;
All things You brighten,
All things You renew.
The winter of our souls
Becomes as summertime;
The cacophony of trials
Becomes music of rhyme.
The cross to a crown
You faithfully transform;
Icicles in the hearts
You melt and warm.
Praise You, Jesus,
Ray of hope, Ray of light;
Praise You, O Star,
Shining in the night.
Our lives, our hearts,
To You we raise;
You are our Symphony,
Our Song of praise.
No cloud too heavy,
No trial too grim,
No night too dark,
No pathway too dim –
For life and light
From You, Lord, begin.
Your fire of hope
Burns away pain and sin.
And behind the clouds,
Clouds dark as night,
We see You, O Jesus,
Our Ray of Sonlight.
