1 ‘Twill not be long, O toiling throng,
All clouds dispelled by perfect dawn,
O weary breast by care opprest,
‘Twill not be long, ‘twill not be long.

Refrain:
O joyful song,
O crystal gleam,
O shining strand, O glory land,
O gates of gold, O joy untold!

2 ‘Twill not be long till joy and song
Will banish tho’t of doubt and wrong,
When blinding grief will find relief,
‘Twill not be long, ‘twill not be long. [Refrain]

3 ‘Twill not be long, faint heart be strong,
The road we trod to God leads on,
Tho’ sorely tried by wind and tide,
‘Twill not be long, ‘twill not be long. [Refrain]
Crowning Day, No. 6: A Book of Gospel Songs #164 (1904)
