Rejoice Alway
Author: F. S. S. Hymnal: The Golden Sheaf #40 (1902) First Line: What tho' the storm of life is hard Refrain First Line: Rejoice today, his love alway Lyrics: 1 What tho' the storm of life is hard,
And all our comfort flies away,
The promise of the Lord endures;
In him we can rejoice today.
Chorus:
Rejoice today, his love alway
Shall bring sweet comfort o'er and o'er;
He soon will say, "Ye blessed, come,
Enter my joy, forevermore."
2 What tho' our way may seem obscure,
And trying tho'ts may often rise:
A word of prayer lights up our way:
Rejoice in God, and so be wise. [Chorus]
3 What tho' our future hopeless be
For gold and silver do not lust:
If he can save us evermore,
He can today; rejoice and trust. [Chorus]
4 What tho' our friends may from us turn,
For sympathy and love we sigh;
Tho' e'er so dark the cloud may be,
Rejoice in God; he stayeth by. [Chorus]
5 And when the days of cloud are past,
And all men must before him stand,
How great the joy to us shall be,
If we may stand at his right hand. [Chorus]

Frederick S. Stanton
1857 - 1915 Author of "Rejoice alway" Stanton, Frederick S. (New Bedford, Massachusetts, December 20, 1857--October 1, 1915, New Bedford). Held a Bachelor of Music degree and was ordained to the Advent Christian ministry. He held pastorates at Hudson Falls, New York and Lawrence, Mass. Ill health and a final paralysis limited activity in his later years, although he supplied in various churches around New Bedford.
He wrote words and music to a number of hymns, and composed the music for other Advent Christian hymn-writers. He was secretary of the Southern Massachusetts District Conference of his denomination. He contributed to the preparation of several of its hymnals, and was co-editor of The Golden Sheaf (1898), Carols of Hope (1906) and The Advent Christian Hymnal (1913). His obituary, by Willis G. Brown, is in The World's Crisis, 20 October 1915, p. 15.
