Lyrics

1. I've found a joy in sorrow, a precious balm for pain; a beautiful tomorrow of sunshine after rain. I've found a branch of healing near ev'ry bitter spring; for ev'ry anxious feeling the Lord does comfort bring, for ev'ry anxious feeling the Lord does comfort bring.
2. I've found a glad hosanna for ev'ry woe and wail. A handful of sweet manna when grapes of Eshcol fail. I've found a Rock of Ages when desert wells are dry and after weary stages I've found an Elim nigh, and after weary stages I've found an Elim nigh.
3. This Elim with its coolness, its fountains and its shade, a blessing is in fullness when buds of promise fade. Oft through my tears returning I see the sun again; it satisfies my yearning and soothes my greatest pain, it satisfies my yearning and soothes my greatest pain.
4. My Saviour, You possessing, I have the joy, the balm, the healing and the blessing, the sunshine and the calm. The promise for the fearful, the Elim for the faint; the rainbow for the tearful, the glory for the saint, the rainbow for the tearful, the glory for the saint!
