Better Days Are Dawning

lyricist: Annie Pinfold, 1908
Composer: Guy altz

Courage

mo­ther

though your child­ren stray

Far from paths of love and peace away.

Work on

pray on

though the sky’s o’er­cast;

Better days are dawn­ing

and joy will come at last.

Better days are dawn­ing; joy will come at last

God will hear and an­swer

as in ag­es past.

Work on

pray on

though the sky’s o’er­cast;

Better days are dawn­ing

and joy will come at last.

Cease not pray­ing

sad

dis­heart­ened ife

For the one that’s dear­er far than life.

Work on

pray on

though the sky’s o’er­cast;

Better days are dawn­ing

and joy will come at last.

Weary suf­fer­er

through long hours of pain

By you stands the Com­fort­er again.

Work on

pray on

though the sky’s o’ercast;

Better days are dawn­ing

and joy will come at last.

All who fal­ter ’neath a load of care

Christ will aid

your hea­vy bur­dens share.

Work on

pray on

though the sky’s o’er­cast;

Better days are dawn­ing

and joy will come at last.
