Chorus: Jesus soon is coming; This is my song; Cheers the heart when joys depart, And foes are pressing strong. 2 Here in this vale of sin and sorrow I have been wandering many years, Still looking for that happy morrow When God would wipe away my tears. [Chorus] 3 Ofttimes the tempter comes in power, Fain then would lead my steps astray; But when the clouds begin to lower, Hope turns the darkness into day. [Chorus] 4 O it will be but little longer I must these many woes endure; Then let my faith and hope grow stronger; My Father's promise still is sure. [Chorus] Tune Title: EXPECTATION

The shadows are stretching afar o'er the lea, Then oh! let me anchor beyond the dark sea. 4. I'll lay my life's burden, O Lord, at Thy feet, Where angels are waiting with love's welcome sweet; The portals of glory are open for me: Then oh! let me anchor beyond the dark sea. The shadows are stretching afar o'er the lea, Then oh! let me anchor beyond the dark sea. Languages: English Tune Title: [I'm weary. I'm fainting; my day's work is done]
