The Glorious Morning

Author: S. L. Cuthbert Hymnal: GJ1890 #90 (1890) Tune Title: [When the misty clouds around you] First Line: When the misty clouds around you Refrain First Line: By and by, there comes the dawning Lyrics: 1 When the misty clouds around you Hide the sunlight from your eyes, And the darkness that surrounds you Veils the brightness of the skies; Then, when e’er your courage falters, Hear the words that Jesus said When He walk’d upon the waters,— “It is I, be not afraid.” Chorus: By and by, there comes the dawning Of a glorious, happy day, By and by there comes the dawning Of a bright and glorious morning, When the clouds shall fade away, shall fade away. 2 Darkness here! yet still above you Shines the golden city bright; On its streets are those who love you, Happy in its radiant light, With your Saviour close beside you, Do not fear, be not dismay’d, With His hand and voice to guide you— “It is I, be not afraid.” [Chorus] 3 With His presence ever near you, Needed aid and hope to bring, How His words should always cheer you— Make your heart with joy to sing. Oh, the light of day is shining Far beyond the clouds and shade; No more darkness or repining— “It is I, be not afraid.” [Chorus] Languages: English

He shall comfort , soothe, uphold me, Till this toilsome life shall end. 2 When the burdens seem too heavy, And my soul is sore oppressed, When my hands and feet grow weary, And there seems no place of rest, Then I fly to my Redeemer, Cast on Him my every care, When he tells me, sweetly tells me: “I will all your burdens share.” [Chorus] 3 When the friends I love so dearly, Fall beside me, one by one, When my heart grows faint within me, As I journey all alone, Then I fly to my Redeemer, Loving Jesus ever nigh, When I hear those words of promise: “You shall meet them by and by.” [Chorus] Languages: English

Shall we hear the blessed voices, Of the loved ones waiting there, As their anthems of rejoicing, Float upon the heav’nly air? 2 When those pearly gates swing open, Shall we seem them waiting, throng? Shall we joyfully enfold them, In our arms bereft so long? Shall we hear their eager questions, Of the dear ones left afar, In this land of gloom and shadow, Out beyond the “gates ajar”? Shall we hear the blessed voices, Of the loved ones waiting there, As their anthems of rejoicing, Float upon the heav’nly air? 3 Faith one ager wing soars upward, And bright Hope her way attends, And the heart oft sad and lonely, Upward bourne by them, ascends: In that fair and distant country, We shall find our loved and own, There we’ll join with them in praises, Gathered with them ‘round the throne. Chorus: We shall hear the blessed voices, Of the loved ones waiting there, As their anthems of rejoicing, Float upon the heav’nly air. Languages: English
