The Hills Above

Author: R. M. Hymnal: Rodeheaver's Gospel Songs for church, Sunday Schools and evangelistic services #106 (1922) First Line: There are sunlit hills above me Refrain First Line: I will leave the misty valley Lyrics: 1 There are sunlit hills above me, And the hand of God is there, Where the valley shadows never reach And the sky is always fair; Though my cares press heavy on me, And my heart is sore distressed, In the love of Christ my Savior I find perfect rest. Refrain: I will leave the misty valley for the sunlit hills above, Yes, I’ll leave the misty valley for the hills above; God has led me from the shadow to the sunlight of His love, So I’ll leave the misty valley for the hills above. 2 With the light of faith to guide me, And with hope at hand to cheer, I will struggle up the rugged steep, Never falter, never fear; I will leave the dismal valley, And above the mists of sin, In the glory of the sunlit hills New life begin. [Refrain] 3 When the shadows gather round me, And my sight is growing dim, I will lift my eyes to heav’n above— For my help must come from Him. He will guide me through the valley, Where the path of life may wend, Till I reach the gates of glory And my journey’s end. [Refrain] Tune Title: [There are sunlit hills above me]
