931. Though love may weep with breaking heart

1 Though love may weep with breaking heart,
There comes, O Christ, a day of thine!
There is a morning star must shine,
And all those shadows shall depart.

2 Though faith may droop and tremble here,
That day of light shall surely come;
His path will lead him safely home;
When twilight breaks, the dawn is near.

3 Though hope seem now to hope in vain,
And Death, seem king of all below,
There yet shall come the morning glow,
And wake our slumbers once again.
