The Sun Will Shine Tomorrow

lyricist: Mattie Britts, 1900
Composer: Louis Eichhorn

Duet

O weary pil­grim

thro’ life’s day

Are sha­dows gath’ring o’er thee?

Have care and pain be­set the way

That stretch­es on be­fore thee?

Then trust in God

look up and smile

Thro’ blind­ing tears of sor­row:

The clouds can dark­en but awhile

The sun will shine to­mor­row.

Refrain (Quar­tet)

The sun will shine

the sun will shine

The sun will shine to­mor­row.

The clouds can dark­en but awhile

The sun will shine to­mor­row.

Our lives must hold some rainy days

Some storms must break ab­ove us

But ’tis our Fa­ther guides our ways

He’ll nev­er fail to love us.

So brave­ly

bright­ly keep thy way

And do not yield to sor­row

For tho’ the clouds hang thick to­day

The sun will shine to­mor­row.

This world is quite a hap­py place

In rain or plea­sant wea­ther

If peo­ple on­ly try to live

In har­mo­ny to­ge­ther.

Oh

let us trust

midst good and ill

And joy from trou­ble bor­row:

A lov­ing Fa­ther watch­es still

The sun will shine to­mor­row.
