158. Some Bright Morning

1 Be not a weary, for labor will cease
Some glad morning;
Turmoil will change into infinite peace,
Some bright morning.

Refrain:
Some bright morning,
Some glad morning,
When the sun is shining in th'eternal sky;
Some bright morning,
Some glad morning,
We shall see the Lord of Harvest, by and by.

2 Wearisome burdens will all be laid down,
Some glad morning;
Then shall our cross be exchanged for a crown,
Some bright morning. [Refrain]

3 Labor well done shall receive its reward,
Some glad morning;
Thou who art faithful shall be with the Lord,
Some bright morning. [Refrain]

4 O what a time of rejoicing will come,
Some glad morning;
When all the ransomed are gathered at home,
Some bright morning. [Refrain]

5 There with the loved ones who've gone on before,
Some glad morning;
We shall sing praise to the Lamb evermore,
Some bright morning. [Refrain]
