Weeping endures but for a night

Author: Annie R. Smith Appears in 4 hymnals Topics: The Christian Comfort and Encouragement Lyrics: 1 Weeping endures but for a night, Joy cometh with the morning light; Joy cometh of celestial birth, Unsullied by the blight of earth. 2 Joy comes each faithful heart to thrill, That fears of change no more will chill; Transporting joy, that fills the soul While everlasting ages roll. 3 Then, mourning pilgrim, upward gaze; Beyond this dark and thorny maze A joy for every tear is found, A healing balm for every wound. 4 No sorrow there shall dim the eye, No wintry winds or storms are nigh, No sighs borne on the fragrant air; But all shall in the glory share. 5 Awake, for lo, not distant far, The rising of the Morning Star; O watch to catch the new-born ray That ushers in a cloudless day. 6 Hail! glorious morn, whose radiant light Shall bid the darkness take its flight; Shall chase the shades of gloom away, And night be turned to endless day.
