When the Clouds Have Passed Away

1 As we dai­ly jour­ney on­ward,
Whatsoe’r our lot in life,
Clouds of sin and sor­row
Fill us with dis­may;
But if we will trust in Je­sus,
He will sanc­ti­fy our strife,
And re­ceive us when
The clouds have passed away.

Refrain:
When the clouds have passed away,
We shall dwell with Christ for aye,
Sharing in eter­nal bright­ness
With re­deemed ones
Round the throne,
When for ev­er­more
The clouds have passed away.

2 Jesus knows that on­ly sun­shine
Cannot draw us close to Him,
For we are so strange­ly
Weak and prone to stray;
But we learn by faith to fol­low,
When with tears the way is dim,
And we’ll see Him when
The clouds have passed away. [Refrain]

3 O the bright­ness of the morn­ing!
O the bliss be­yond com­pare!
When ac­cept­ed we
Shall stand in white ar­ray,
Knowing that with Christ, our Sav­ior,
We eter­nal joys shall share,
And for­ev­er all
The clouds have passed away. [Refrain]
