Sheet music

  1. 1Walking in sunlight, all of my journey;Over the mountains, thru the deep vale;Jesus has said, “I’ll never forsake thee,Promise divine that never can fail.Heavenly sunlight, heavenly sunlight,Flooding my soul with glory divine;Hallelujah! I am rejoicing,Singing His praises, Jesus is mine.
  2. 2Shadows around me, shadows above me,Never conceal my Savior and Guide;He is the light, in Him is no darkness,Ever I’m walking close to His side.Heavenly sunlight, heavenly sunlight,Flooding my soul with glory divine;Hallelujah! I am rejoicing,Singing His praises, Jesus is mine.
  3. 3In the bright sunlight, ever rejoicing,Pressing my way to mansions above;Singing His praises, gladly I’m walking,Walking in sunlight, sunlight of love.Heavenly sunlight, heavenly sunlight,Flooding my soul with glory divine;Hallelujah! I am rejoicing,Singing His praises, Jesus is mine.
