They are only shadows,
But behind the dark shadows shines love’s kindly ray,
They are only shadows.
Refrain:
Do not doubt, do not fear,
When the shadows appear,
Just remember that dark lonely shadows
Cannot hide God’s dear face
If we trust in His grace,
They are only shadows.
2 There are shadows of fear bringing tho’ts that dismay,
They are only shadows,
If we walk in His love they will all pass away,
They are only shadows. [Refrain]
3 There are shadows of doubt that steal into our mind,
They are only shadows,
If we look to the cross blest assurance we find,
They are only shadows. [Refrain]
4 There are shadows of death that are black with despair,
They are only shadows,
For Christ Jesus, the Light of the world, will be there,
They are only shadows. [Refrain] Topics: Hope Languages: English Tune Title: [There are shadows of sorrow that darken life's way]
