There’s a light in the window for thee;
A dear one has moved to the mansions above,
There’s a light in the window for thee.
Refrain:
A mansion in Heaven we see,
And a light in the window for thee.
A mansion in Heaven we see,
And a light in the window for thee.
2 There’s a crown, and a robe, and a palm, brother,
When from toil and from care you are free;
The Savior has gone to prepare you a home,
With a light in the window for thee. [Refrain]
3 O watch, and be faithful, and pray, brother,
All your journey o’er life’s troubled sea,
Tho’ afflictions assail you, and storms beat severe,
There’s a light in the window for thee. [Refrain]
4 Then on, perseveringly on, brother,
Till from conflict and suffering free;
Bright angels now beckon you over the stream,
There’s a light in the window for thee. [Refrain] Used With Tune: [There's a light in the window for thee, brother] Text Sources: The Anniversary and Sunday School Music Book No. 15, (New York: Horace Waters, 1858)
