Author: J. B. V. Hymnal: Praise and Promise #175 (1900) First Line: Soon we'll lay our burdens down Refrain First Line: A better time is coming by and by Lyrics: 1 Soon we’ll lay our burdens down,
And take up a golden crown,
A better time is coming by and by;
Soon we’ll enter into rest,
With the ransomed and the blest,
A better time is coming by and by.
Refrain:
A better time is coming by and by,
A better time is coming by and by;
When this weary life is o’er,
And we reach the other shore,
A better time is coming by and by.
2 We have trials here below,
Where the turbid waters flow,
A better time is coming by and by;
Let us look beyond the gloom,
Where transplanted roses bloom,
A better time is coming by and by. [Refrain]
3 Soon, before our Father’s throne,
We will meet the loved ones gone,
A better time is coming by and by;
Let us press along the way,
To that glad triumphal day,
A better time is coming by and by. [Refrain] Languages: English Tune Title: [Soon we'll lay our burdens down]
