Somewhere Above the Skies Are Blue

 


Somewhere Above the Skies Are Blue

 

Every cloud has a silver lining

Somewhere above the skies are blue,

Each day has its own burdens

But God’s faithfulness each morn is new.

 

Some days the skies are dark and ugly

The storms of life hang low and grim

But through their rage God directs us

To walk by faith with our eyes on Him.

 

“The Eternal God is thy refuge”

Let His Word assuage all alarms

When we’re weak, His strength is sure

“Beneath are the Everlasting Arms.”

 

Our Shepherd has a heart so tender

He beckons to the faintest call

He welcomes the stray back home

And strengthens the feeble when they fall.

 

“As far as the east is from the west”

God has removed our transgressions

And before the throne of God

For us Jesus makes intercessions.

 

“In all points tempted like as we are.”

He knows and feels are deepest need,

He is the Faithful High Priest,

Our Savior prays for us to succeed.

 

He has promised never to leave us

His promises are steadfast and true

Remember on dreary days—

Somewhere above the skies are blue.
