A poem by Joseph Horatio Chant

Joy In The Morning

________________________________________________
Title:     Joy In The Morning
Author: Joseph Horatio Chant [More Titles by Chant]

The night of affliction, with its long hours of sadness,
Will soon pass away to be remembered no more;
And the weeping will end in a morning of gladness;
For no sorrow is known on the evergreen shore.

In this world we shall have tribulation and sorrow;
'Tis enough for the subject to be as his king;
But if we are faithful, joy will come with the morrow,
And with the blood-washed a new song shall we sing.







[The end]
