O That Sweet Day

Author: Vinnie Vernon Hymnal: The Cyber Hymnal #12254 Meter: 8.8.8.8 First Line: Sad soul, be strong! ere long, ere long Lyrics: 1 Sad soul, be strong! ere long, ere long, Thy burdened prayer shall end in song! The day draws near, that day so dear; Take courage, heart, ’twill soon be here. Refrain: Oh, that sweet day, when Christ shall say, "Come, faithful one, away, away!" What glad surprise awaits our eyes In that dear land of paradise! 2 Wait on thy Lord! rest in His word, He will all needful grace afford; E’en while you pray, your longings may Be stilled in hope of that sweet day. [Refrain] 3 In every grief, ’twill give relief To know, tho’ sharp, it must be brief; In every care which thou must share, This thought will help thee bravely bear. [Refrain] 4 ’Twill soon be o’er! no more, no more, Shall thy sad heart sin’s work deplore; Let doubts all cease, and perfect peace, Shall antidote thy soul’s release. [Refrain] Languages: English Tune Title: ZACATECAS
