Sometimes a Light Surprises

Author: William Cowper Hymnal: Ecumenical Praise #42 (1977) Topics: Christian Experience and Devotion Hope and Courage Lyrics: 1 Sometimes a light surprises The Christian while he sings; It is the Lord who rises With healing in his wings. When comforts are declining, He grants the soul again A season of clear shining, To cheer it after rain. 2 In holy contemplation We sweetly then pursue The theme of God’s salvation, And find it ever new; Set free from present sorrow, We cheerfully can say, Let the unknown tomorrow Bring with it what it may. 3 It can bring with it nothing But he will bear us through; Who gives the lilies clothing Will clothe his people, too; Beneath the spreading heavens No creature but is fed; And he who feeds the ravens Will give his children bread. 4 Though vine nor fig tree neither Their wonted fruit should bear, Though all the fields should wither, Nor flocks nor herds be there; Yet, God the same abiding, His praise shall tune my voice; For, while in him confiding, I cannot but rejoice.
