Sunshine and Rain

Author: C. H. G. Hymnal: VoP1904 #73 (1904) First Line: Had we only sunshine all the year around Refrain First Line: [Sunshine and rain, refreshing, reviving rain] Lyrics: 1 Had we only sunshine all the year around, Without the blessing of refreshing rain, Would we scatter seed upon the fallow ground, And hope to gather flowers, fruit and grain? Chorus: Sunshine and rain, refreshing, reviving rain, Light of faith and love, Showers from above! Sunshine and rain, to nurture the growing grain, Send us, Lord, the sunshine and the rain. 2 Had we not a sorrow or a cross to bear, For him who bore the burden of our sin, Would we know the sweetness of his love and care, Or even strive eternal joys to win? [Chorus] 3 Can we prize the sunshine and deplore the rain, Repining when the days are dark and drear? Can we hope for pleasures yet deny the pain, Or share the joys of life without the tear? [Chorus] Tune Title: [Had we only sunshine all the year around]

The Cloud and Fire

Chorus: So the sign of the fire by night, And the sign of the cloud by day, Hov'ring o'er, just before, As they journey on their way, Shall a guide and a leader be, Till the wilderness be past, For the Lord our God in his own good time, Shall lead to the light at last. 2 To and fro, as a ship without a sail, Not a compass to guide them thro' the vale, But the sign of their God was ever near, Thus their fainting hearts to cheer. [Chorus] 3 All the days of their wand'rings they were fed; To the land of the promise they were led; By the hand of the Lord, in guidance sure, They were bro't to Canaan's shore. [Chorus] Tune Title: [As of old, when the hosts of Israel]
