Praise for the Lord (Expanded Edition) ‎#60

60. After the Midnight

1 After the midnight, morning will greet us;
After the sadness, joy will appear;
After the tempest, sunlight will meet us;
After the jeering, praise we shall hear.

Chorus:
After the shadows, there will be sunshine,
After the frown, the soul-cheering smile;
Cling to the Savior, love Him forever;
All will be well in a little while.

2 After the battle, peace will be given;
After the weeping, song there will be;
After the journey there will be heaven,-
Burdens will fall and we shall be free. [Chorus]

3 Shadows and sunshine all thro' the story,
Teardrops and pleasure, day after day;
But when we reach the kingdom of glory,
Trials of earth will vanish away. [Chorus]
