1 When folded in shadows of midnight we rest,
‘Neath starlight, soft starlight,
In some distant clime they are hailing the rays
Of morning fair and bright.

Chorus:
Morning somewhere,
Tho’ darkness and gloom may surround us;
Day is breaking
With banners of glory unfurled;
Morning somewhere;
Take heart for a better tomorrow;
Radiant promise,
‘Tis morning somewhere in the world.

2 Securely we slumber, assured of the dawn,
Sweet daylight, the day bright,
For sunset to us means to others afar,
The coming of the light. [Chorus]

3 When life’s day is ending, we near the dark vale,
The lovelight, God’s lovelight,
Will rise on our vision in realms far away,
Where nevermore comes night. [Chorus]
