Walk by faith a little longer

Author: T. F. W. Hymnal: Light and Life #30 (1881) First Line: What tho' clouds are round about thee Lyrics: 1 What tho' clouds are round about thee, Earth seems dark and cold, and drear; Surely there's a better country Than we've ever dream'd of here. Chorus: Walk by faith a little longer, Keep thy heart all free from guile, Soon thou'lt hear the blessed Master Say, "well done, come home, my child." 2 There no cloud shall dim the vision; All is light and warmth and love; There's a home for all the homeless In "our Father's house" above. [Chorus] 3 What tho' none are left to love thee. No one thou canst call thine own; He has said, "I'm with thee alway;" Fear not thou art not alone. [Chorus] Languages: English Tune Title: [What tho' clouds are round about thee]
