I was journeying in the noontide

- I was journeying in the noontide,
- when His light shone o‟er my road
- and I saw Him in that glory,
- saw Him, Jesus, Son of God.
- All around, in noonday splendour,
- earthly scenes lay fair and bright;
- but my eyes no longer see them
- for the glory of that light.
- I have seen the face of Jesus,
- tell me not of aught beside;
- I have heard the voice of Jesus,
- all my soul is satisfied.
- Others, in the summer sunshine,
- wearily may journey on;
- I have seen a light from heaven,
- past the brightness of the sun;
- light that knows no cloud, no waning,
- light wherein I see His face,
- all His love‟s uncounted treasures,
- all the riches of His grace.
- Marvel not that Christ in glory
- all my inmost heart hath won;
- not a star to cheer my darkness,
- but a light beyond the sun.
- All below lies dark and shadowed,
- nothing there to claim my heart,
- save the lonely track of sorrow
- where of old He walked apart.
- Sinners, it was not to angels
- all this wondrous love was given,
- but to one who scorned, despised Him,
- scorned and hated Christ in heaven.
- From the lowest depths of evil,
- to the throne in heaven above,
- thus in me He told the measure
- of His free unbounded love. ......
