Apron Strings - Cliff Richard, The Drifter

Beams of heaven as i go

Through the wilderness below

Guide my feet in peaceful ways

Turn my midnights into days

When in the darkness i would grope

Faith always sees a star of hope

And soon from all life’s grief and danger

I shall be free someday

I do not know how long 'twill be

Nor what the future holds for me

But this i know: if jesus leads me

I shall get home someday

Oftentimes my sky is clear

Joy abounds without a tear;

Though a day so bright begun

Clouds may hide tomorrow’s sun

There’ll be a day that’s always bright

A day that never yields to night

And in its light the streets of glory

I shall behold someday

I do not know how long 'twill be

Nor what the future holds for me

But this i know: if jesus leads me

I shall get home someday

Harder yet may be the fight;

Right may often yield to might;

Wickedness a while may reign;

Satan’s cause may seem to gain

There is a god that rules above

With hand of power and heart of love;

If i am right, he’ll fight my battle

I shall have peace someday

I do not know how long 'twill be

Nor what the future holds for me

But this i know: if jesus leads me

I shall get home someday

Burdens now may crush me down

Disappointments all around;

Troubles speak in mournful sigh

Sorrow through a tear-stained eye

There is a world where pleasure reigns

No mourning soul shall roam its plains

And to that land of peace and glory

I shall want to go someday

I do not know how long 'twill be

Nor what the future holds for me

But this i know: if jesus leads me

I shall get home someday
