HYMN 235

SS/S 5 (By W Sorrow) (FE 255)



1.  I‘ve found a joy in sorrow 

     A secret balm for pain

     A beautiful to-morrow

     Of sunshine after rain I've 

     Near every bitter spring.


Chorus:  A Whispered promise stealing 

              O’er every broken string,

              A Whispered promise stealing 

              O’er every broken string.


2.  I’ve found a glad hosannah 

     For every woe and trial
  
     A handful of wee: manna 

     When desert wells are dry.

Chorus:  A Whispered promise... 


3.  An Elim with its coolness 

     lts fountain and its shade

     A blessing in its fullness 

     When buds of promise fade  

    O’er tear of soft contrition 

     I’v seen a rainbow light.

Chorus:  A Whispered promise... 


4.  My Saviour, Thee possessing 

     l 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.

Chorus:  A Whispered promise stealing 

              O’er every broken string,

              A Whispered promise stealing 

              O’er every broken string.  Amen
