‘Tis Better On Before

Author: H. L. Hymnal: Great Gospel Songs #49 (1929) First Line: Since light has dawned on me Lyrics: 1 Since light has dawned on me, The light of Calvary, My heart has been aglow with heav’nly peace; My sinful, guilty past Is blotted out at last, And day by day my blessings shall increase. Refrain: ‘Tis better on before, Beyond the open door, The door of God’s tomorrows bright and far; My yesterdays are past, Beyond are realms so vast, The realms of God my Father’s loving care. 2 When I was first redeemed, How glorious it seemed To know that all my sins were washed away; But as I onward press In paths of righteousness, The way is growing brighter ev’ry day. [Refrain] 3 Tho’ burdens I must bear, There’s One who waits to share Them with me so my heart shall know no fear; Bereavement, pain and loss Are hallowed thro’ the cross, And farther on the lights of home appear. [Refrain] 4 The reasons for the strife And mysteries of life In God’s tomorrow shall be all revealed; In yonder home of peace The stormy days shall cease, And all the ills of life shall there be healed. [Refrain] Languages: English Tune Title: [Since light has dawned on me]
