Hills and Valleys

By S. O. JAMES

S. O. JAMES
OUR life is a journey of ups and downs, And the valleys are full of sorrow; For our City in Canaan will sink from sight, The shadows will come, and the chilly night, When we dare not move to the left or right, Only long for the sunny morrow.
Yes, life is a journey of ups and downs; But the valleys are seen from heaven. Faith whispers, “I’ll order your steps aright;” The just must follow, nor ask for sight; True wisdom is certain to win the fight; Just ask, and it shall be given.
’Twill help us all through the ups and downs; Dear heart-broken one, believe it. Whether you labor in country or town, Whether you meet with a smile or a frown, Jesus will furnish you stars for a crown; Look up and prepare to receive it.
