| Text: | Glory Breaks Beyond |
| Author: | M. Fraser |
| Tune: | [We wait for light, for brightness] |
| Composer: | James McGranahan |
1 We wait for light, for brightness,
We shall not wait in vain;
For glory breaks beyond the gloom,
Clear, shining after rain.
Chorus:
Glory, glory breaks beyond the gloom,
Thro' Christ, our Saviour, we shall triumph over death and the tomb.
2 We wait the glorious dawning,
The new, the brighter day;
We wait until the shadows have
For ever fled away. [Chorus]
3 We wait His word of promise,
A word that cannot fail;
And hope is like an anchor cast,
All firm within the vail. [Chorus]
