Hymn 558 WHEN THE MORNING COMES Lyrics

1. Trials dark on every hand,
And we cannot understand All the ways that
God would lead us To that blessed promised land;
But He’ll guide us with His eye,
And we’ll guide us with His eye,
And we’ll follow till we die;
We will understand I better by and by

Chorus:
By and by, when the morning comes,
When the saints of God are gathered home,
We will tell the story how we’ve overcome,
We will understand it better by and by.

2. Oft our cherished plans have failed,
Disappointments have prevailed,
And we’ve wandered in the darkness,
Heavy hearted and alone;
But we’re trusting in the Lord,
And, according to His Word,
We will understand it better by and by.

3. Temptations, hidden snares
Often take us unawares,
And our hearts are made to bleed
For some tho’tless word or deed,
And we wonder why the test
When we try to do our best,
But we’ll understand it better by and by.
