Author: Josephine Pollard Hymnal: The Little Sower for Sabbath Schools #55 (1870) First Line: There are lights by the shore of that country Refrain First Line: Oh, there's lights along the shore Lyrics: 1 There are lights by the shore of that country,
Where my bark amid perils I steer,
And they ever grow brighter and brighter,
As that glorious have I near.
Chorus:
Oh, there's lights along the shore
That never grow dim,
Never, never grow dim,
Are the souls that are aflame
With the love of Jesus' name,
And they guide us, yes they guide us unto him.
2 There are lights by the shore as we journey,
As we float down the river of time,
All the days of our pilgrimage brighten,
With a radiance truly sublime. [Chorus]
3 O they tell us of a hope that will cheer us
In the midst of our sorrows and cares,
When the lamp on our vessel burns dimly,
We watch for the glimmer of their's. [Chorus]
4 Then forget not to keep your lights shining;
O Christian, be earnest and true,
For a soul on life's ocean may perish,
May sink in the waves but for you. [Chorus] Tune Title: [There are lights by the shore of that country]
Lights along the shore
