Till the Day Shall Dawn

lyricist: Grace Burleigh, 1903
Composer: Daniel Towner

We must wait in this sha­dowy land

Till the day shall dawn;

We must march with the brave pil­grim band

Till the day shall dawn;

Till the day shall dawn

Till the day shall dawn

Till morn­ing light shall scat­ter night

And the day-star arise in our hearts.

We must live full of kind­ness and love

Till the day shall dawn;

We must trust in our Fa­ther ab­ove

Till the day shall dawn;

Till the day shall dawn

Till the day shall dawn

Till far and near the morn ap­pear

And the day-star arise in our hearts.

We must com­fort the hearts that are sad

Till the day shall dawn;

We must help them to trust and be glad

Till the day shall dawn;

Till the day shall dawn

Till the day shall dawn

Till sor­row’s night shall fade in light

And the day-star arise in our hearts.

We must watch for our Je­sus to come

Till the day shall dawn;

We must wait for the sweet rest of home

Till the day shall dawn;

Till the day shall dawn

Till the day shall dawn

Till God’s dear Son shall say

Well done

And the day-star arise in our hearts.
