There are lights bt the shore of that country Where my bark amid perils I steer And they ever grow brighter and brighter As that glorious haven I near
O the lights along the shore That never grow dim Never, never grow dim Are the souls that are aflame With the love of Jesus name And they guide us, yes They guide us unto Him
There are lights by the shore as we journey As we float down the river of time All the days of our pilgrimage brighten With a radiance truly sublime

O they tell of a hope that will cheer us In the midst of our sorrows and cares When the lamp on our vessel burns dimly And we watch for the glimmer of theirs
Then forget not your light, keep it shining O Christian, be earnest and true For a soul on life's ocean may perish May sink in the waves but for you
