The Seventh-Day Adventist Hymn and Tune Book ‎#1233

1233. O weary pilgrim, lift your head!

1 O weary pilgrim, lift your head!
For joy cometh in the morning;
For God in his own word has said
That joy cometh in the morning.

Chorus:
Joy cometh in the morning,
Joy cometh in the morning;
Weeping may endure, may endure for a night,
But joy cometh in the morning.

2 Ye feeble saints, dismiss your fears,
For joy cometh in the morning;
And weeping mourners, dry your tears,
For joy cometh in the morning. [Chorus]

3 Let ev'ry tearful eye look up,
For joy cometh in the morning;
And ev'ry trembling sinner hope,
For joy cometh in the morning. [Chorus]

4 Our God shall wipe our tears away,
For joy cometh in the morning;
Sorrow and sighing cannot stay,
For joy cometh in the morning. [Chorus]
