16049. The Golden Days Are Coming By And By

1 Does the temp­ter seek your soul?
Do your doubts per­plex your mind?
God still holds the world’s con­trol,
Happiness in Him you’ll find.

Refrain:
The gold­en days are com­ing by and by,
The gold­en days are com­ing by and by;
In our Fa­ther’s home above,
We shall glo­ry in His love,
The gold­en days are com­ing by and by.

2 Tho’ your load is hea­vy now,
Don’t give up or be cast down;
God has pro­mised, and He’s true,
Every cross will mean a crown. [Refrain]

3 Jesus is a migh­ty king,
Every foe will van­quished be;
We shall find our heart’s de­sire
Thro’ the Man of Ga­li­lee. [Refrain]

4 Sin some day will be un­known,
Tears of pain and sor­row o’er;
Those we’ve loved and lost awhile,
We shall meet to part no more. [Refrain]
