Author: Maria Straub Hymnal: Good Will #86 (1882) Scripture: Philippians 4:4 First Line: Rejoice in the Lord while going the way Refrain First Line: Tis only a cloud passing over the way Lyrics: 1 Rejoice in the Lord while going the way
The Savior has trodden before;
Rejoice in the Lord though darkens the day,
‘Tis only a cloud passing o’er.
Chorus:
‘Tis only a cloud passing over the way,
‘Tis only a cloud passing o’er;
Rejoice in the Lord, tho’ darkens the day,
‘Tis only a cloud passing o’er.
2 Rejoice in the Lord your Captain and King,
‘Tis glorious his fol’wer to be;
Though troubles may rise, His goodness still sing,
For soon the dark shadows will flee. [Chorus]
3 Be happy in God, his promise is true,
His mercies will ever endure;
The Savior will guide, He still is with you,
Though doubting his presence obscure. [Chorus]
4 Rejoice in the Lord, what blessings of love
For glad, grateful hearts are in store,
Rejoice in the shade, there’s sunlight above,
Rejoice in the Lord evermore. [Chorus]
