I shall meet you

W. Sanderson

There is gladness in the morning,

There is happiness and song;

There's a promise in the sunrise

For the heart that waiteth long;

For the heart that waiteth ever,

Though the skies be clear or grey,

For the passing of a shadow

And the breaking of a day.

I shall meet you in the morning,

When at last shall rise the sun;

And the waiting and the longing,

And the wearying are done.

Though the way be cold and dreary,

And the journeying be long,

When I meet you in the morning

'Twill be summer-time and song.

As the flow'rs uplift their faces

To the sunrise and the dawn,

Turns my vision ever upward

Where the star of hope is born;

For I'm waiting, waiting ever

Till my golden dream comes true,

When I waken unto gladness,

And the morn at last brings you.

I shall meet you in the morning,

When at last shall rise the sun;

And the waiting and the longing,

And the wearying are done.

Though the way be through the shadow,

And the eventide be long,

I shall meet you in the morning

In the land of light and song.
