Author: Ira David Sankey Hymnal: The Cyber Hymnal #12186 First Line: Out of the shadow-land, into the sunshine Refrain First Line: Silently, peacefully, angels have borne him Lyrics: 1 Out of the shadow-land, into the sunshine,
Cloudless, eternal, that fades not away;
Softly and tenderly Jesus hath called him
Home, where the ransomed are gathering today.
Refrain:
Silently, peacefully, angels have borne him,
Into the beautiful mansions above;
There shall he rest from earth’s toiling forever,
Safe in the arms of God’s infinite love.
2 Out of the shadow-land, weary and changeful,
Out of the valley of sorrow and night,
Into the rest of the life everlasting,
Into the summer of endless delight. [Refrain]
3 Out of the shadow-land, over life’s ocean,
Into the rapture and joy of the Lord,
Safe in the Father’s house, welcomed by angels,
His the bright crown and eternal reward. [Refrain] Languages: English Tune Title: [Out of the shadow-land, into the sunshine]
