And we are sure that the song has ended,

(((SURELY GOODNESS AND MERCY))

~~~John W Peterson (1921

~~~Alfred B Smith (1916

A pilgrim was I and a-wandering~~~In the cold

night of sin I did roam---When Jesus. the kind Shepherd,

found me---And now I am on my way home

(Chorus)

SURELY GOODNESS AND MERCY SHALL FOLLOW ME

ALL THE DAYS, ALL THE DAYS OF MY LIFE

SURELY GOODNESS AND MERCY SHALL FOLLOW ME

ALL THE DAYS, ALL THE DAYS OF MY LIFE

(SEVEN)...Hymn...MINE EYES HAVE SEEN THE

GLORY...of the coming of the Lord...He is trampling out the

GLORY! GLORY! HALLELUJAH!

G! G! H!

G! G! H!

HIS TRUTH IS MARCHING ON.

When we feel we have nothing left to give

And we are sure that the song has ended

When our day seems over and the shadows fall

And the darknesss of night has descended,

Where can we go to find the strength to valliantly

keep on trying?

Where can we find th hand that will dry the tears

that the heart is crying?

There's but one place to go and that is to God

And,\, dropping all pretense and pride,

We can pour out our problems without restraint

And gain strength with Him at our side.

And together we stand at life's corssroads

And view what we think is the end;

But God has a much bigger vision,

And He tells us it's only a bend.

for the road goes on and is smoother

And the pause in the song is a rest,

And the part that's unsung and unfinished

Is the sweetest and richest and best.

So rest and relax and grow stronger;

Let go and let God share your load.

Your work is not finished or ended;

You've just come to a bend in the road.
