God’s Family Hymnal 12:78

【Out of the Valley into Glory】

1 I have a dream from heaven high,

Scorned by many, misunderstood by man.

In the long dark valley, his presence shines forth,

Sets us free from shadows binding us.

O in this land of grief He prospers me!

Now glorious joy summons all toil and pain!

His dream and mine, this glorious vision,

How can my heart deny?

2 He is the First, He is the Last;

He sustains me with courage and with faith!

From my heart overflows a song of boastful hope.

With one heart, let’s run this final race!

This is the core of God’s work in this age!

How blessed! We pursue You by Your side!

Suff’ring is gone; glory has dawned!

Leaping with joy, we finish His will!

3 This movement’s passed the dark valley!

His hand causes all things to work for us,

Leads us through floods and fires into the Promised Land

‘valley of tears’ out-flows the springs of life!

O in the land of grief He prospers me!

Now glorious joy surmounts all toil and pain!

For sure will be fulfilled!

Glory and joy ever in crossing!

Exultantly, we’ll welcome that day!

Triumphantly, we’ll meet in the clouds!

Gloriously Beloved, may You come soon!

【Song of Solomon‬ ‭8‬:‭9】

If she is a wall, we will build on her a battlement of silver, but if she is a door, we will enclose her with boards of cedar.
