Hymn

ENGLISH LYRICS: Oh, weary pilgrim, lift your head

"...weeping may endure for a night, but joy cometh in the morning." Psalm 30:5

1. Oh, weary pilgrim, lift your head,
    For joy cometh in the morning!
    For God in his own word hath said
    That joy cometh in the morning!

Joy cometh in the morning!
Joy cometh in the morning!
Weeping may endure,
May endure for a night,
But joy cometh in the morning.

2. Ye feeble saints, dismiss your fears,
    For joy cometh in the morning!
    And weeping mourners, dry your tears,
    For joy cometh in the morning.

3. Let every tearful eye look up,
    For joy cometh in the morning!
    And every trembling sinner hope,
    For joy cometh in the morning!

4 Our God will wipe our tears away,
    For joy cometh in the morning!
    Sorrow and sighing flee away,
    For joy cometh in the morning!
