Author: Rev. Johnson Oatman, Jr. Hymnal: Light in the Valley #113 (1898) First Line: Tho' when walking down life's valley Refrain First Line: Just above the sun is shining Lyrics: 1 Tho' when walking down life's valley,
Oft the vale is fill'd with dread;
Yet when e'er I look above me,
There is sunlight over head.
Chorus:
Just above the sun is shining,
Then no more the shadows dread;
But remember when repining,
There is sunlight over head.
2 Tis the sun that makes the shadows,
So no matter where we tread;
Let us sing when days are gloomy,
There is sunlight over head. [Chorus]
3 In this world of sin and sorrow,
Trials on ev'ry hand are spread;
Yet my heart keeps singing ever,
There is sunlight over head. [Chorus]
4 When at last I walk the valley,
And the shadow of the dead;
My dear Lord will whisper to me,
There is sunlight over head. [Chorus] Topics: Praise Languages: English Tune Title: [Tho' when walking down life's valley]
