Light Will Greet Thee By and By

Is thy trem­bling heart awea­ry?

Are thy foot­steps al­most gone?

Does life seem a wea­ry bur­den?

Courage

bro­ther

strug­gle on!

Bear it cheer­ful­ly and brave­ly

Do not stop to weep or sigh;

After night the morn­ing dawn­eth

Light will greet thee by and by.

By and by the morn­ing dawn­eth

By and by

by and by.

Tho’ thou see’st no sign of dawn­ing

Light will greet thee by and by.

Is thy spir­it sad with­in thee?

Raise thy heart in ear­nest pray­er;

Trust a Fa­ther’s lov­ing kind­ness

Trust a Fa­ther’s ten­der care.

Call up­on Him in thy sor­row

He will hear thy fal­ter­ing cry;

Tho’ thou seest no sign of dawn­ing

Light shall greet thee by and by.

Has thy spir­it grown awea­ry?

Do not fal­ter in the strife!

God has work for thee

my bro­ther

As thou tread’st the path of life.

Darkness may ob­scure thy path­way

Clouds may ga­ther in the sky;

Storms may rage

but do not mur­mur

Light shall greet thee by and by.
