Hymn 313

From The Christian Science Hymnal, 1932 edition

---

Sometimes a light surprises
The Christian while he sings;
It is the Lord who rises
With healing in his wings.
When comfort seems declining,
There comes to us again
A season of clear shining,
To cheer us after rain.

In holy contemplation
We sweetly then pursue
The theme of God’s salvation,
And find it ever new.
To God, in light abiding,
True praise shall tune my voice,
For while in Him confiding,
I cannot but rejoice.
