We'll Know Each Other

Representative Text

1 Oh, we’ll meet, and know each other,
In the light of full-orbed day,
Where the splendors of the morning
Chase the shadows all away.

Refrain:
Yes, we’ll meet, and know each other,
Griefs no more shall hidden lie,
Brother grasp the hand of brother,
Face to face and eye to eye.

2 Wrongs that have our hearts withholden
Stand aghast when light they see,
Doubts that have a brother questioned,
There before the daylight flee. [Refrain]

3 Oh, that bright and last uplifting
Of the mists which hide the true!
Heart to heart shall quickly answer
When our love is stirred anew. [Refrain]

4 O that faith might never waver,
O that love would long forbear,
Hope should point to yonder meeting,
Perfect love and trust are there. [Refrain]
