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.

Refrain
