Baring-Gould Appears in 327 hymnals Topics: Encouragements; Encouragements First Line: Through the night of doubt and sorrow Lyrics: 1 Through the night of doubt and sorrow, Onward goes the pilgrim band, Singing songs of expectation, Marching to the promised land. Clear before us, through the darkness, Gleams and burns the guiding light: Brother clasps the hand of brother, Stepping fearless through the night. 2 One the light of God's own presence, O'er his ransomed people shed, Chasing far the gloom and terror, Brightening all the path we tread: One the object of our journey, One the faith which never tires, One the earnest looking forward, One the hope our God inspires. 3 One the strain the lips of thousands Lifts as from the heart of one; One the conflict, one the peril, One the march in God begun: One the gladness of rejoicing On the far eternal shore, Where the one Almighty Father, Reigns in love for evermore.

Weeping endures but for a night

Author: Annie R. Smith Appears in 4 hymnals Topics: The Christian Comfort and Encouragement Lyrics: 1 Weeping endures but for a night, Joy cometh with the morning light; Joy cometh of celestial birth, Unsullied by the blight of earth. 2 Joy comes each faithful heart to thrill, That fears of change no more will chill; Transporting joy, that fills the soul While everlasting ages roll. 3 Then, mourning pilgrim, upward gaze; Beyond this dark and thorny maze A joy for every tear is found, A healing balm for every wound. 4 No sorrow there shall dim the eye, No wintry winds or storms are nigh, No sighs borne on the fragrant air; But all shall in the glory share. 5 Awake, for lo, not distant far, The rising of the Morning Star; O watch to catch the new-born ray That ushers in a cloudless day. 6 Hail! glorious morn, whose radiant light Shall bid the darkness take its flight; Shall chase the shades of gloom away, And night be turned to endless day.
