Visions of glory burst upon our sight; He says, "At evening-time there will be light." Light will come to brighten All life's darkened way; He will send you sunshine At the close of day; When your trials are over, And you struggles cease, You will find at evening He will speak "Peace"- He will speak "Peace". 2 We think today of loved ones gone before, Safe in the Home-land, safe forevermore; so be not lonely, weary by the way, There'll be reunion at the close of day. E'en tho' thro' gloom of earth we grop our way, Life's Twilight Hour begins Heav'n's glorious day. Just a ray of sunshine, At the eventide, From the One who leads you Walking by your side; He is very near you, Giving strength and pow'r- He'll send light to brighten Life's Twilight Hour, Life's Twilight Hour.
