Heavenly Sunlight

This hymn talks about the beauty and joy of walking in Jesus' Truth. It has always been a favorite of mine although I do prefer a more upbeat version.

Heavenly Sunlight
by Henry Jeffreys Zelley

Walking in sunlight all of my journey,

Over the mountains, through the deep vale;
Jesus has said, I'll never forsake thee—
Promise divine that never can fail.
Heavenly sunlight! Heavenly sunlight!

Flooding my soul with glory divine;
Hallelujah! I am rejoicing,
Singing His praises, Jesus is mine!
Shadows around me, shadows above me

Never conceal my Savior and Guide;
He is the light, in Him is no darkness,
Ever I'm walking close to His side.
Heavenly sunlight! Heavenly sunlight!

Flooding my soul with glory divine;
Hallelujah! I am rejoicing,
Singing His praises, Jesus is mine!
In the bright sunlight, ever rejoicing,

Pressing my way to mansions above;
Singing His praises, gladly I'm walking,
Walking in sunlight, sunlight of love.
Heavenly sunlight! Heavenly sunlight!

Flooding my soul with glory divine;
Hallelujah! I am rejoicing,
Singing His praises, Jesus is mine!
Heavenly sunlight! Heavenly sunlight!

Flooding my soul with glory divine;
Hallelujah! I am rejoicing,
Singing His praises, Jesus is mine!
Singing His praises, Jesus is mine!
