First Line: I wandered in the shades of night,

I wandered in the shades of night,
Till Jesus came to me,
And with the sunlight of His love
Bid all my darkness flee.

Sunlight, sunlight in my soul to-day ; . . .
Sunlight, sunlight all along the way ; . .
Since the Saviour found me, took away my sin, . .
I have had the sunlight of His love within.

2 Though clouds may gather in the sky,
And billows round me roll,
However dark the world may be,
I've sunlight in my soul.

3 While walking in the light of God,
I sweet communion find ;
I press with holy vigour on,
And leave the world behind.

4 I cross the wide extended fields,
I journey o'er the plain,
And in the sunlight of His love
I reap the golden grain.

5 Soon I shall see Him as He is,
Who gave Himself for me ;
Behold the brightness of His face
Through all eternity.
