Weeping Will Cease

Author: Rev. W. T. Dole Hymnal: Gospel Jewels #116 (1890) First Line: Weeping may last for a night in the vale Refrain First Line: Weeping will cease in that beautiful home Lyrics: 1 Weeping may last for a night in the vale, But there is joy in the morning for thee; Bright in the land where no sorrows assail, Jesus thy light and thy glory shall be. Refrain: Weeping will cease in that beautiful home; There neither sighing nor sorrow can come. 2 So when the night of this life shall be o’er, Thou shalt awake on the morning of rest; Then shalt thou stand on that beautiful shore, And with the image of Jesus be blest. [Refrain] 3 Oh, haste thee on in the heavenly way, Joyfully enter thy home in the sky! Pilgrims now passed thro’ the portals of day, Resting at home in the mansions on high. [Refrain] Languages: English Tune Title: [Weeping may last for a night in the vale]
