'Shadow and Coolness' (poem) written by Amy Carmichael

Shadow and coolness, Lord, art thou to me;

Cloud of my soul, lead on, I follow thee.

What though the hot winds blow,

Fierce heat beat up below,

Fountains of water flow -

Praise, praise to thee.

Clearness and glory, Lord, art thou to me;

Light of my soul, lead on, I follow thee.

All through the moonless night,

Making its darkness bright,

Thou are my heavenly light -

Praise, praise to thee.

Shadow and shine are thou, dear Lord, to me;

Pillar of cloud and fire, I follow thee.

What though the way be long,

In thee my heart is strong,

Thou are my joy, my song -

Praise, praise to thee.
