I Am Waiting for the Morning

Of the blessed day to dawn,
When the sorrow and the darkness
Of this changeful life are gone.

I am waiting, only waiting,
Till this weary life is o'er;
Only waiting for my welcome,
From my Saviour on the other shore.

With the battle and the strife,
Hoping, when the warfare's over,
To receive a crown of life. [Chorus]

For a home of boundless love
Like a pilgrim looking forward
To the land of bliss above. [Chorus]

Of my Saviour calling me. [Chorus] Used With Tune: [I am waiting for the morning]
