Author: J. R. Baxter, Jr. Hymnal: Hymns by the Western Stars #23 (1949) First Line: Sorrows surround us while treading life's road Refrain First Line: After the sunrise happy we'll be Lyrics: 1 Sorrows surround us while treading life's road,
Troubles confound us, make heavy our load;
Fetters that bound us, no longer will goad,
After the sunrise, how happy we'll be.
Refrain:
After the sunrise, happy we'll be,
We know after the sunrise, Jesus we'll see;
All will be glory, singing the story,
After the sunrise, how happy we'll be.
2 Shadows will vanish when morning shall come,
Lovelight will banish sin's vapors like scum;
Even the clanish together will hum,
After the sunrise, how happy we'll be. [Refrain]
3 Angels are waiting to carry the news,
Why stand debating, why longer refuse?
Cease all your hateing, be changing your views,
After the sunrise, how happy we'll be. [Refrain] Languages: English Tune Title: [Sorrows surround us while treading life's road]
