He Will Come, Perhaps, At Morning

Author: George Watson Hymnal: The Cyber Hymnal #14902 Meter: 8.7.8.7 D Lyrics: 1 He will come, perhaps, at morning, When to simply live is sweet, When the arm is strong, unwearied By the noonday toil and heat; When the undimmed eye looks fearless Up the shining heights of life, And the eager soul is panting, Yearning for some noble strife. 2 He will come, perhaps, at noontide, When the pulse of life throbs high, When the fruits of toil are ripening, And the harvest time is nigh; Then thro’ all the full-orbed splendor Of the sun’s meridian blaze, There may shine the strange, new beauty Of the Lord’s transfigured face. 3 Or it may be in the evening— Gray and somber is the sky, Clouds around the sunset gather, Far and dark the shadows lie; When we long for rest and slumber, And some tender thoughts of home Fill the heart with vague, sad yearning, Then perhaps the Lord will come. 4 If He only finds us ready In the morning’s happy light, In the strong and fiery noontide, Or the coming of the night— If He only finds us waiting, Listening for His sudden call, Then His coming when we think not Is the sweetest hope of all.

Rob­lin (a an­a­gram of his name) ================ Peter Philip Bilhorn was born, in Mendota, IL. His father died in the Civil War 3 months before he was born. His early life was not easy. At age 8, he had to leave school to help support the family. At age 15, living in Chicago, he had a great singing voice and sang in German beer gardens there. At this time, he and his brother also formed the Eureka Wagon & Carriage Works in Chicago, IL. At 18 Peter became involved in gospel music, studying under George F. Root and George C. Stebbins. He traveled to the Dakotas and spent some time sharing the gospel with cowboys there. He traveled extensively with D. L. Moody, and was Billy Sunday's song leader on evangelistic endeavors. His evangelistic work took him into all the states of the Union, Great Britain, and other foreign countries. In London he conducted a 4000 voice choir in the Crystal Palace, and Queen Victoria invited him to sing in Buckinghm Palace. He wrote some 2000 gospel songs in his lifetime. He also invented a folding portable telescoping pump organ, weighing 16 lbs. It could be set up in about a minute. He used it at revivals in the late 19th century. He founded the Bilhorn Folding Organ Company in Chicago. IL, and his organ was so popular it was sold all over the world. He edited 10 hymnals and published 11 gospel songbooks. He died in Los Angeles, CA, in 1936. John Perry
