When Love Shines In (Canaan Melodies #12)

A great upbeat song about the effect of God's love in the heart of a person. What great words! I kept the melody the same but changed the time signature from a waltz to an upbeat 4/4 - it seemed happier this way!

More info on the song here.

1 Jesus comes with pow’r to gladden, when love shines in
Every life that woe can sadden, when love shines in
Love will teach us how to pray, love will drive the gloom away
Turn our darkness into day, when love shines in

Chorus:
When love shines in, when love shines in
How the heart is tuned to singing
When love shines in, when love shines in
Joy and peace to others bringing
When love shines in

2 How the world will grow with beauty, when love shines in
And the heart rejoice in duty, when love shines in
Trials may be sanctified, and the soul in peace abide
Life will all be glorified - when love shines in

3 Darkest sorrow will grow brighter, when love shines in
And the heaviest burden lighter, when love shines in
’Tis the glory that will throw, light to show us where to go
O the heart shall blessing know - when love shines in

4 We may have unfading splendor, when love shines in

And a friendship true and tender, when love shines in

When earth’s vict’ries shall be won, and our life in heav’n begun

There will be no need of sun - when love shines in
