They Shall Shine as the Sun
Cheer up, weary heart, with joy you may run
1
Cheer up, weary heart, with joy you may runThe race that before you appears;Of the righteous 'tis said, They shall shine as the sunIn the realm of eternal years.
Chorus.
They shall shine as the sun,All they who their Master obey;They shall shine as the sun,With Jesus thro' endless day.

Stand firm, fainting heart, be brave in the right,The helmet of faith you should wear;By the sword of his word and the pow'r of his might,God will help you the cross to bear.

Sweet promise of God! it rings in my earLike music I cannot describe;I may shine as the sun if I only draw nearTo the Lamb who on Calv'ry died.
