Hymns - I've Found a Joy in Sorrow - Текст песни

I???ve found a joy in sorrow, a secret balm for pain,
A beautiful tomorrow of sunshine after rain;
I???ve found a branch of healing near every bitter spring;
A whispered promise stealing o???er every broken string,
A whispered promise stealing o???er every broken string.

I???ve found a glad hosanna for every woe and wail;
A handful of sweet manna when grapes of Eschol fail;
I???ve found a Rock of Ages when desert wells are dry;
And, after weary stages, I???ve found an Elim nigh,
And, after weary stages, I???ve found an Elim nigh.

An Elim with its coolness, its fountains, and its shade;
A blessing in its fullness, when buds of promise fade;
O???er tears of soft contrition I???ve seen a rainbow light,
A glory and fruition, so near! yet out of sight,
A glory and fruition, so near! yet out of sight.

My Savior, Thee possessing, I have the joy, the balm,
The healing and the blessing, the sunshine and the psalm;
The promise for the fearful, the Elim for the faint,
The rainbow for the tearful, the glory for the saint!
The rainbow for the tearful, the glory for the saint!
