Beams Of Heaven

The lyric stays readable and compact here; the note and related paths sit nearby so you do not lose the song while looking for context.

Verso 1

Beams of heaven as I go,

through this wilderness below.

Guide my feet in peaceful way,

turn my midnights into days.

When in darkness, I would grope,

Faith always sees a star of hope.

And soon from all life's grief and danger,

I shall be free some day.

Refrão

I do not know how long 'twill be,

nor what the future holds for me;

but this I know, if Jesus leads,

I shall get home some day.

Verso 2

Often times my sky is clear,

joy abounds without a tear.

Though a day so bright begun,

clouds may hide tomorrow's sun.

There'll be a day that's always bright,

a day that never yields to night;

and in its light the streets of glory,

I shall behold some day.

Refrão

Verso 3

Harder yet may be the fight,

right may often yield to might.

Wickedness awhile may reign,

Satan's cause may seem to gain.

There is a God that rules above,

sith hand of power and heart of love.

If I am right, He'll fight my battle,

I shall have peace some day.

Refrão

Verso 4

Burdens now may crush me down,

disappointments all around.

Troubles speak in mournful sigh,

sorrow through a tear stained eye.

There is a world where pleasure reigns,

no mourning soul shall roam its plains,

and to that land of peace and glory,

I want to go some day.

Refrão
