After The Midnight

After the midnight, morning will greet us;

After the sadness, joy will appear;

After the tempest, sunlight will meet us;

After the jeering, praise we shall hear.

Refrain

After the shadows, there will be sunshine;

After the frown, the soul-cheering smile;

Cling to the Savior, love Him forever;

All will be well in a little while.

After the battle, peace will be given;

After the weeping, song there will be;

After the journey there will be Heaven,

Burdens will fall and we shall be free.

Refrain

Shadows and sunshine all thro' the story,

Teardrops and pleasure, day after day;

But when we reach the kingdom of glory,

Trials of earth will vanish away.
