SS&S 825: There are shadows in the valley
1. There are shadows in the valley,
Where our tired feet must go:
But we hear the peaceful waters,
As they murmur soft and low —
And our Shepherd whispers gently,
As He leads us onward still:
There are shadows in the valley,
But 'tis sunshine on the hill.
Sunshine on the hill,
There is sunshine on the hill; . .
There are shadows in the valley,
But 'tis sunshine on the hill.
2. There are shadows in the valley,
But we breathe the sweet perfume
Of the roses on the mountain,
In their lovely vernal bloom;
And again our Shepherd whispers,
As He leads us onward still:
There are shadows in the valley,
But 'tis sunshine on the hill.
3. Oh, the shadows in the valley,
Like a dream will pass away:
They will vanish at the dawning
Of the bright and glorious day!
Even now there comes an echo,
And we feel its magic thrill:
There are shadows in the valley,
But 'tis sunshine on the hill.

(SS&S) Sacred Songs and Solos Hymns
Psalm 33
1 Sing joyfully to the Lord, you righteous;
it is fitting for the upright to praise him.
2 Praise the Lord with the harp;
make music to him on the ten-stringed lyre.
3 Sing to him a new song;
play skillfully, and shout for joy.
4 For the word of the Lord is right and true;
he is faithful in all he does.
5 The Lord loves righteousness and justice;
the earth is full of his unfailing love.
6 By the word of the Lord the heavens were made,
their starry host by the breath of his mouth.
7 He gathers the waters of the sea into jars;
he puts the deep into storehouses.
8 Let all the earth fear the Lord;
let all the people of the world revere him.
9 For he spoke, and it came to be;
he commanded, and it stood firm.
10 The Lord foils the plans of the nations;
he thwarts the purposes of the peoples.
11 But the plans of the Lord stand firm forever,
the purposes of his heart through all generations.
12 Blessed is the nation whose God is the Lord,
the people he chose for his inheritance.
13 From heaven the Lord looks down
and sees all mankind;
14 from his dwelling place he watches
all who live on earth—
15 he who forms the hearts of all,
who considers everything they do.
16 No king is saved by the size of his army;
no warrior escapes by his great strength.
17 A horse is a vain hope for deliverance;
despite all its great strength it cannot save.
18 But the eyes of the Lord are on those who fear him,
on those whose hope is in his unfailing love,
19 to deliver them from death
and keep them alive in famine.
20 We wait in hope for the Lord;
he is our help and our shield.
21 In him our hearts rejoice,
for we trust in his holy name.
22 May your unfailing love be with us, Lord,
even as we put our hope in you.
